Computer geek extarodinaire, I love to tinker with gadgets and tech items to get them to do what I want. I'm either logically artistic or artisically logical. I'm also rude, crude, semi-barbaric, socially unacceptable, and totally psychotic. On the bright side - I am potentially harmless. I'm currently trying to write some short stories about the fae as well as a novel on those same fae as well as two other novels. The programs I have for photo and image editing are: Photoimpact from Ulead, Adobe Photoshop 7 and Corel Paint Shop Pro 2X. Recently I've added DAZ Studios as well as Terragen, Blender and Google Sketch to my list of programs crowding my hard-drive.  All this and much more on an old Pentium III 450 with 396 Megs of memory and operating Windows XP. It does get interesting at time.As of December 26, 2008, I have added Vue 7 Pioneer to my list of reason of why I'm going insane.
As of January 2010 I upgraded to a new HP 2 dual core processor with 6 gigs onboard mem with 4 gig powerboost and 2.07 terabytes of Hard drivesMy email is faemike55@gmail.com

Something to reflect on nice job Mike.

Good work.

Beautiful capture and motif, Mike. Your technique seems to work well i think.

Interesting. Try putting a candle in the scene and turn out the lights and turn off your flash. Then, keep the shutter open for varying amounts of seconds. I once did this years ago and got some cool images. You just need to be sure there are no drafts or the candle flame will blur.

Well that's certainly whitened it out... Interesting.. Now try a black studio.. See the results then.. Rob

Yes, that's totally cool Mike!

Very clever!

Definitely cool, Mike! I like the simple arrangement that creates for something really unique to look at! Great colours as well!

What an excellent little studeeo! What else will you put in it, I wonder?

Thats cool. When I was in old fashion art school, we would use a box to set up still lifes at home.It's easy with a light, but I would try and set up outside, not always strong enough light to pick up good shadows. :O)

& brighten it up you did!! x

Great experiment and atempt here! Maybe 2 ply tissue paper would be suitable as you could use lamps to light from the outside therefore ataining a diffused lighting condition - could be worth a try! ;-)

A bright idea that will help with getting more of your skilled photographs.

If I may suggest something for future exploration: they say that only one thing looks better when lit from directly below, and that is glassware. If your set is made of paper, consider cutting a hole under the bottom of the vase and throwing some light straight up through it. That would look really cool.

Great capture Mike! I suggest you must stick a white cardboard on the wall and make a kind of smooth curve to make a kind of cyclorama, that avoids the horizontal line at the bottom and gives you greater sense of depth.

Extreme White!

I have wanted to do that too, just haven't ever gotten around to do it. You must tell us how to create one.
