Default Still Life
ok... new assignment this time we would like to see still life shots... so this means setting up your subject and the lighting... go and grab 2 desk lamps to help eliminate the shadows.. or maybe try out the DYI light tent?? How To: Light Tent


The only example i have is this disco dude my toddler got from Maccas with a happy meal...lol not the best shot.. but it will help with ideas maybe
