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.

That said - in the last batch of shots there
were several shot with studio light.

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.

I don't know the proper jargon either, Dan...
the physicist in me was amused by the
contradiction of reflecting the absence of
light, that's all.
