    Default Lightbox lunacy

    Ok, so I had a go at building a DIY lightbox this evening. As a result, I threw just about anything I could find into it and snapped away. These are the results...

    Some nice shots there mate, shame the white's aren't consistent throughout though.
    Are you using the custom white balance feature on your camera???

    Cheers dude... Yup, I used custom WB from an 18% grey. The white's are inconsistant because I was shifting the lightsources to create different effects. That was intentional and I couldn't be bothered to reshoot the grey card for each shot

    The only problem I have with some of the shots is where I used an extra handheld white card to bounce the light and left the join visible, or a slight shadow (pic 3)
