So, glad I saw this! Very exciting. I've seen several others that have various versions since. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks, and you're welcome. I've seen different versions too. I just wanted to show you guys the basic premise and let you run with it.

Creative, inventive, totaly awesome result. I absolutely love it! Thank you for showing all the steps with pictures, as I am a very visual person, it is much easier for me to understand the "how to" when there are pictures involved. Great job!

Thanks! I'm a more visual person myself, so I completely appreciate where you're coming from. I just wanted to make it easy for everyone and, hopefully, inspire a few people. Thanks again for the compliments, I really appreciate it.

These are the bulbs I have - Full Spectrum Light Lighting Bulb 85W Photography Photo CFL 6500K Daylight Balanced Pure White Light - Studio Bulbs - EQUIPMENT.
Other than that, I used my speed light set at an angle so the glass would reflect the light away from me so. The settings I used on most were 125-160th at F18. Just try different things and find what works best for you. Hope you get some great results.
