Simple Photo Setup

[DMC]

This is my simple photo setup.  Darker blue cloth is a small table in front of a window.  Smaller blue square is on top of a biscuit tin for small subjects.   Removing the biscuit tin and square allows me to shoot larger subjects but I haven't had to do much of that so far. The white square bounces light from the window back on to the subject.  Very useful for darker subjects or on cloudy days to fill in shadows.

 

 

Top image is without the bounce, bottom with.  Camera is an old Samsung that has a feature that lets me shoot double images, like this, or quadruple ones.  Unavailable now so I take pretty good care of mine.

 

 

Cheers,

I like the bounce card - might try that with my setup

I thought you bought the same monster lights I did (Or was it Bootneck?  ), the only thing I tend to need these days is sunglasses!

I get my bounceback off the ceiling! 

 

I worry that my neighbours might imagine something like this:
