Description

When i started photography I had troubles picking the right light, most of them are expensive, some are REALLY HOT, the model will melt fast and start to complain!!! strobe flash is hard to control (at least for me). So why not creating my own light!!?? a cold cheap yet really powerful day light ... sounds good right? any ways I don't want to take allot of your time, I created this light that cost me 100$ including the softbox and the stand ... yet very easy to control and really COLD. I hope that you will like the idea or at least find it useful ... please comment to let me know what do you think?? any help!!?? you can aske and i'll answer ... OK

:) Yeah, well, eh, my models like the heat ;) I normaly use flash, and worked with this studio flash thing once. That works for me. But I prefer natural light of windows. But take care about all this electrickery ;) Excellent peice of shooting, collage and instruction in one.
