My First Milk Shot


I built two cheap light boxes last night.  Every photographer takes one of these pics sooner or later.  Sorry for the cliche.

  1. How cheap? What did it take to make them?

    It may be cliche but it's still pretty darn cool!

  2. I put three lamps each in two shoe boxes and wired them all to plugs. Was about $25 or so total with the bulbs. I used florescent lights and then had to color correct the yellow out of the image. I'm going to try my Coke fizz experiment again today now that I have better lighting :)

  3. Yeah, it's cool. You might have to lay off the 1:1 macro shots. You're giving Zack serious lens envy. Speaking of lenes... do you still have mine?

  4. I guess I do have your lens. I thought it was Zack's. Will give it back when we're all together again.
