Lovely clear and sharp images Todd. Perhaps a bit too much glare still in the first set, is that a window I can see or are the lights too bright?

I agree on both remarks!
Could you also tell us what camera you are using?
cheers

Pics look good mate, a bit bright maybe but nice and sharp. Off to ebay to see what a rig like that would cost me. The thing is I'll see the price and think 'nah that's 10% of an SD M42' lol....

And that Stewie shenanigans will be marked in your record pending your first review. Not a good start Mr N. Sorry I'm being a bit of a troll today I think. Need a cup of tea

Great pick up Todd...those white umbrellas are not commonly found..along with the stands ...You done well in your find. As Jerry said..there will be much trial and error before you find the right position. Regards Larry

The lights are a bit bright I think. It only came with one type of bulb so that's all I had to work with. Not as much glare as the bright sun but it's noticeable. I'll keep working on it.

Nice Todd. I had some studio lights which broke down so am going to buy new lights and a muslin backdrop and a new camera next month. Use a D80 but the damn iPhone is soooo much more convenient LOL. Moving the D80 out to pasture.

PS if I could make one recommendation, edit your pics and turn the exposure down. Will give it a more natural colour. But still, nice clear sharp pics for sure. A grey backdrop is better than white as well.
