Amber
by

First pictures with my freshly finished 18" and 24" light tents. I used the 18" tent with a black back ground for this shot.

I spent about $45.
($6 for 48' of 3/4" PVC, $10 for eight side outlet or corner 90º elbow fittings, $6 for two lights with clips and reflectors, $5 for two 2600 lumen compact fluorescent light bulbs(Clearance Bin 75% off), $10.40 for fabric for backgrounds, $2 tubing cutter, and $1.50 for thread.)

Also used a old sheet, freebie.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Your home made light really brings out the color in the amber. Nice job.

Nice job Rich, The photo came out real nice. I would change the platform so that you can't see the material.

Striking image, very well presented. Could use a tad more sharpening on my monitor.
