Default Just when I think I'm all done shopping for new stuff.....

LOL! As some of you know, I just recently ordered an Alien Bee setup. So, as I was sitting here bored today, it dawned on me that when the lights come, I really have no fun backdrops to shoot against....so off I went to B&H's website and bought a boatload of seamless paper. I don't buy stuff often, but when I do, man I get myself in trouble!

Its a never ending journey!
I have made a career out of buying painters drop clothes (the thin materail for only 3 bucks at Wal Mart) and some dye. I have a bucket all set aside for doing tie dyes for backgrounds. Some are bright and wild, some are subtle colors. Its fun and way cheaper than buying backdrops.

Ah Susan, what would I do without you. You're the one I can point to and say, "At least I'm not as bad as she is!!"
