I used the flashlight setup with the headphones I posted in my gallery, and a glass jar with sand and shells I posted back here. (There's a third one still waiting in the wings.)
Ronnie says he doesn't own a flashlight. Whatever low light setup he used for his headphone shot was something else. (He was tweaking me about shooting headphones, not about the lighting setup.) :)
There are so many wonderful ways to do low light! Ronnie taught me the first one I used (shooting coins and thimbles and bells and whatnot). That one used a table lamp three feet to the right of the subject and up a bit, with a cardboard or newspaper reflector to the left. I've played around on my own with a few others.
I love seeing what other people are coming up with, and how they're using setups that we've talked about back here. That's what this is all about!
Yay! :)
I still haven't decided what I'm going to do for my third shot, but the month is only half over. I'll decide in time, don't worry! :)
