My Upgrade

If you follow my blog and websites, you may have noticed that my photos have been get increasingly professional looking, if I may say so myself.  I recently took the plunge and bought a set of professional florescent lights and a tent kit from B&H to photograph with. Looking for the right light to photograph in has long frustrated me, and this seemed like just the thing to streamline my photography process.

The zip up tent breaks up the light and creates a soft glow on all my work. Here it is pictured unzipped. Normally, the front panel is zipped up and only the lens of the camera is pushed through to take the picture. This insures that the light is bouncing around from all sides, and the piece is lit evenly.

My new Midday Garden was shot "In the Tent"

Add to that last falls purchase of my Canon EO5 Rebel Camera, and the quality of the pictures has just gone through the roof! You can see the ethereal quality that the work takes on under this diffused light. Really makes me happy! And I am sure it makes for a much better experience--did anyone notice a difference?
