Yes, I finally bought a HUGE lightbox! :D This thing is going to help me to fix problems with weak light on my photos. I already tested it, and the results are great. I am as happy as a bee!
I got these all standard size 1 1/4" dia. - 36" length PVC pipe at Home Depot. I would have preferred white but here in Toronto white PVC seems to be hard to find and couldn't seem to find the smaller diameter either. But that's ok - I ended up making a larger box that can be used for bigger setups and the sturdier pipe keeps the whole rig from falling over. If making your own, I recommend assembling it on the floor at the store to ensure you get what you want. You'll attract a few people too asking questions about what you're making - this gives a high fun factor. Total cost of parts with tax CDN$123.00. I was surprised at the cost of PVC pipe, $5 per 36" tube - still a lot cheaper than buying a pro rig from a photo equipment supplier. The elbows and T-sections were around $1 to $3 each.

Chitwan District, is one of the seventy-five Districts of Nepal.
The district takes its name from the Chitwan Valley, one of Nepal's Inner Terai valleys between the Mahabharat and Siwalik ranges, both considered foothills of the Himalayas.
Chitwan is one of the few remaining undisturbed vestiges of the Terai region, which formerly extended over the foothills of Nepal.
Chitwan has a particularly rich flora and fauna. Nepal's first national park, the Chitwan National Park together with the adjacent Parsa Wildlife Reserve support a species diversity much higher than any other on the Indian subcontinent. Rare species include Bengal tiger, gharial and the world's second largest population of Asian Rhinoceros, but also leopards, Mugger crocodile, Indian rock python and several species of deer.
The Rapti River flows east to south west in the south of Bharatpur and forms the northern border of the Chitwan National Park. The Narayani River flows north to south in the west of Bharatpur. It is the deepest and also one of the biggest rivers of Nepal.
so I brought the ancient lightbox down from the attic and had a little play time. Not happy with the way the camera appears to read the identical background in various shades ranging from white to yellow, and it is also hard to get the focus right, but otherwise it's been fun to play around.

So I decided to make a light box. I found the tutorial at strobist.blogspot.com/2006/07/how-to-diy-10-macro-photo-s.... I went out to the garage and found an Amazon.com box. Next I went to Joann's to get some cheap muslin and AC Moore for black tape and a white poster board. I'm going to have to play around with it some more. I never really tried flash photography.

And finally, the lightbox gets hung and the DVD racks get filled. The other one is on the opposite wall.

These pictures were shot during the 'Tour de la Madeleine' (Madeleine procession) at Jumet (Charleroi) - Belgium on July 24th 2011.
The 'Tour de la Madeleine' is a more than 600 year old tradition consisting on a combined religious procession and traditional parade with around two thousands participants. Such participants parade in several groups with historical military costumes from various period and countries. The procession starts at Jumet very early in the morning (around 04:00am) and walk through surrounding cities and villages to finally come around 02:00pm back to Jumet for the main final fair. This event started 600 years ago to celebrate the end of the black plague thanks to Saint Madeleine who saved the city.
This is the most well known event in the Charleroi area every year in July (Tour de la Madeleine on French Wikipedia)

This is a little different from the rest of my photographs. I've been following the Strobist blog by David Hobby, (www.strobist.blogspot.com/) and haven't tried to much because of my lack of equipment and that to buy more equipment. That was until I read how to create your own professional lighting with a piece of paper and a light source. Thanks to Jeff Geerling (www.flickr.com/photos/58595467@N00/457902299/). I haven't tried Hobby's cardboard light box yet.
These three photos we're my results. I think my light source was not quite bright enough but it was fun none the less. It's been a while since I've done any studio lighting if this can be considered that!
I now might have to drop a dollar or two and buy some coloured sheets to try out! If I can figure out how to post photos in the message I'll post shots of the set up.
This is another experiment with my homemade lightbox - my Canon XL1.
You can see rrazor's set up and where I got the inspiration to make one from www.flickr.com/photos/rrazor/105631640/
