do you use your studio lights for a lot of shoots? i've noticed how awesome and even your lighting has been in the last few shoots. i just couldn't achieve the same result with my 580 II bounced off a lowish height white roof.

Not a lot of shoots. Most are still natural light or just my 580ex.

I never went to school for this stuff so i don't speak the proper jargon. But you know what i mean. The black card is what gives the defined edges on the left and right.

love to see setup shots....I've tried something recently at home....but could not get the background working....even with the light on full power, it's like the material in the box was too thick & absorbing it all on the outsidewww.flickr.com/photos/doigal/2448985028/ light-studio.blogspot.com/

Great stuff Dan! No worries on the jargon as you have become a Professor " ) I seriously appreciate how you share your techniques with all. A "play it forward" for photography.
