A place in need of light.
Ok, I finally got around to doing a group shot, never even did a 2009 one. So here is the majority of my lights "only a few plastic lights, and two lanterns missing". There is a lot of lights in no particular order, so if you want any identification just PM me, or ask by describing it. If I tried to label all the lights I might go mad! I can tell you this, my collection has defiantly grown:eek::whistle:!

My modest collection.

How do you take white background pics like that?

That's a very nice collection you have there!
Thanks.

I use 2 pcs of roll printer paper joined side by side. Camera is set to manual mode and the scene is overexposed by about 1 stop - this will make what is white appear white and not greyish. Final adjustments are then done in Picasa before uploading. HTH.

You can use anything that is white. Something preferably large enough. like a poster (usually they are white in the back) or go to an art store and just by a large piece of canson paper.

also you might need some light diffusion.

Agree. You'll need to adjust your camera WB to the correct setting for your light source. I use whatever room lighting is available which is usually florescent lights.

I want to thank Beamhead, notre-dame, Eric242, and CorvettesR1 for the images showing their respective collections. I showed your images to my wife, who, astonished, finally remarked that my measley collection of about 20 lights somehow didn't seem so excessive after all. lovecfp
