haha ..... can i join you? i've been at for sometime as well and have NEVER
gotten the lighting as good as this in any of my work. A very nice example
of what pov can do indeed! I had a photographer in my shop a couple of days
ago. He was photographing some antique pottery (crocks and jugs) for a book.
He was a very nice chap and was willing to put up with me looking over his
shoulder. He had a very bright single light, and used a couple of mirrors to
reflect light to the darker spots not hit by the 1000W light he was using.
The light had two dampers (little flaps) that took away some of the
harshness. He also did something I found really interesting .... slowed down
the shutter speed and moved the mirror from side to side to paint the light
across a the bottom edge of a piece that had a hard to see potters mark. I
really enjoyed watching him as lighting is a very difficult technique to
master (for me)
