I picked up a new backdrop yesterday - so tried it out this afternoon.

This pic is taken using only natural light (a big bay window the the LHS as you look at the photo) and processed with a preset. As it is quite cloudy today - i had the ISO on 1600.

Am going to submit this as one of my photo's for the EB online flickr course on lighting.

Made this today from PVC pipe. 1hr and a half at Home Depot, and then another 15min trip because we forgot something... and there it is. Need to do some minor things to it still, and get a backdrop of course lol... excuse the mess, had nephews over and well things get a mess lol.

Took all of these at BackDrop City, most of them using the same pose to show how versatile the place is.
