Default Assignment: Ghetto Lighting + Reflector

DIY Lighting + Reflector

Well, I can see how important reflected light can be in a shot. I used my soft-light box that I made last week, set up one desk light on the left side. I rolled up the muslin on the right side and replaced it with a piece of cardboard covered with foil. I have the same image on my flickr site with no reflector - I kept everything else the same, and you can see how much the reflector added to the quality of the light. Thanks DPS I would never have done this without this assignment! I learned a lot and now have a great little light box, and an appreciation for reflected light!
