I had been wanting to learn how to make a simple light box for a long time. The rainy days make shooting outside pretty difficult. I found simple instructions here . I couldn’t believe that it took about 20 minutes to make a light box. Of course I didn’t have poster board so I used printer paper :D. That meant I had seams which meant I had to clone them out. (I just couldn’t wait to try it out!). So here I was lying on the floor, with a flashlight on the right and one on the left of the box. A floor lamp gave light from above. I was going to just photograph the bananas (hey, it’s what I had!!) by themselves and thought a little pitcher might add interest. Anyway, here it is:
Click through twice to see a larger version. Camera settings were Auto, ISO 800, F/3.5, 1/50 sec. and focal length 14.8 mm. I adjusted levels and ran through Topaz Detail soft looking. Frame matches the blue on the pitcher and I used Stroke Selection to make the white line. Have a nice breakfast everyone!
