Afro carving

My first attempt with a light box
which I constructed from odds and ends around the house.
You can probably tell one light bulb is yellow and one white
Couldn't find two the same :(

Canon EOS 6D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/25s f/2.8 at 100.0mm iso160 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Well done, and I also think having two colours of light is a positive. V

I love the warm light on his face, it looks like the sun is shining on him.

Well done Gil. I too think that having the two different light colors adds to this. I think we are going to see an explosion of home photography, still life and macro images in the ensuing weeks and months. This is a good example of creativity for all of us. ~BV~

I like it! I think it was serendipitous about the lights and agree Neil! Very Nice! BV

What a beautiful work of art. You did a very good job with your new Lightbox. Well presented with the warm tones.

You did a nice work and maybe the two different tonality of light match well and the effect is good.

Well done, Gill. I'm not nearly that industrious! I like the effect with the two shades of light. V

the figure is fascinating, like a man gazing at the sky...the two shades of light work well together, with the yellow bulb providing welcome warmth..

Nicely captured, especially for your first attempt. I don't think the different color lights makes that much difference. V.
