Here is the lightbox that I assembled. It cost very little... with excellent results. Supply List: 2 20x30x1/2" Foam Board ($1.99/each). 3 20x30x3/8" Foam Board ($0.99/each). 4 Sheets of Tracing Paper ($0.80). 1 Roll of 18" wide easel paper ($3.99). 2 500w Halogen lights ($9.29/each). Light box was put together with none other than white Duct Tape. Hope you like. I got the whole idea from www.photography-on-the.net.
More experiments with the lightbox and im unimpressed, color is hard to get right and there is glare where i don't want it, i think i need to just stick to natural light

This work, and all this artist's works, are beautiful in person.
just editing and storing shots until i decide what to do with them.
so far lightbox is the only thing it has going for it.
Built a small and delightfully portable (and store-able) lightbox today:
Sterlite translucent storage box
3 brooder light covers, with 60 watt incandescent bulbs
Adhesive utensil hooks
Dowel rod
1 yard each of white bleached muslin and black broadcloth
Yardstick
I hung the utensil hooks on the "ceiling" of the light box, and ran the dowel through the hooks. I drape the fabric over the dowel. The lights clamped on either side of the yardstick provide enough counterbalance to hold it up, and I rest the other one on the top of the yard stick. Because the bulbs are only 60 watt (though I picked up some 75s, too) and incandescent rather than halogen, I don't worry that I'm going to start a fire mid-session.
Props to Stephen for the design.
I had no plan for this, I made it from an image that was posted by one of my contacts, Jill Clardy This is made with 8 3-way PVC elbows. The technical name for these is Elbow with side corner outlet, but everyone calls them 3-ways. All the 1/2" pipe is cut to 18" lengths. You can build this without the bottom using just 4 elbows and 8 lengths of pipe if you put rubber pads on the pipe......but this is much more stable.
PVC pipe comes in 10" lengths, I had them cut them to 5"feet to make them more easily transportable.
You can get 3 18" lengths out of each 5' pipe, with just a small piece left over. A 10' piece of 1/2" PVC is less than $2. I'll give you the total I spent when I show you the whole piece constructed.
The piece on the back you do not need. This is 1/8" coated hardboard that I had left from another project. I had other ideas with this. Like covering it with black and rose colored fabric I have, and
placing the object on shiny tile. I bought one black granite tile at Lowes for $0.99
Lightbox From A 12" x 9" x 9" cardboard box
This is my rough and ready prototype lightbox that I made, in ten mins,next lightbox is going to bigger and better, and instead of paper I will use flexible card, and for the hole I will cover it with grease proof paper or tracing paper.
Fig 1 Shows, the hole cut from one of the sides, (Which will become the top of the box), after cutting the hole out it was covered on the outside of the box,with a piece of white paper it also shows beginning to line the box with A4 white paper, and celotaped into position.
Fig 2 Shows the top of the box, notice the flap on the front edge, this will shield the light from the camera lens.
Fig 3 Notice it now has a curved piece of paper taped to the back wall, and to the front edge of the box ( in this image I have used a smaller piece of paper to show the back curve. In the proper version the paper covers the full back wall)
Fig 4 shows the finished box
Fig 5 Shows the angle poise tube lamp with a 40 watt bulb, in place and lit, you can see why we left the flap on the top now as it shields the lens

A beautiful cobblestone street, just North of Washington Square Park, Greenwich Village, New York.
Washington Mews is a private gated street in New York City between 5th Avenue and University Place just north of Washington Square Park. It was originally a mews (row of stables) that serviced horses from homes in the area. Since the 1950s the former stables have served as housing, offices and other facilities for New York University.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Mews
Greenwich Village has always had a well-developed street layout that made it impossible for city commissioners to impose the street grid plan that was given to the rest of the city in 1811. Though Greenwich Village had been very hilly in the early 1800s, its hills have been leveled over the years. Its narrow, winding streets and occasional alleys still remain from its early days. The Village is an alley-hunter's dream, with plenty of "mapped" alleys as well as several secret ones from which the public is kept out by lock and key. Here are just a few of the alleys of The Village.
www.forgotten-ny.com/Alleys/GREENWICH VILLAGE/green.html
In 1950, New York University leased the entire alley. Gradually, more and more homes have been vacated by their original occupants and reserved for use as faculty residences and offices. Some include the Deutsches Haus, the Gluckman Ireland House, the Institute of French Studies, and La Maison Française.
Not every alley can be truly called a Mews. In fact Mews is a British term used to describe a small street lined with homes that are converted stables. Washington Mews is a true Mews and might be the only one in New York City.

I continue to play with the lightbox. It’s just inconsistent lighting which always needs a temp adjustment but it’s fun to play with. Candy is easy to get and cheap to work with. It’s not a big lightbox. (I have two) so this sort of thing works well. The iPhone 13 pro has a great Lens setup for this. It takes better macro photos than my M50.
Mi primer lightbox!
Y nuestra primer sesión juntos Moni!

I kind of went off on a tangent with this one. I covered the back, the bottom and the right side with a black fabric. Then I put the white sheet over it so the sheet covered the top and the left side. The Bible is on a black granite tile I bought at Lowe's for $0.99. I used just one 60 watt bulb at the left sheet. Then I covered the front with a scrap of sheet, and I cut a hole in it for the camera lens. I put the camera on a tripod and put the lens through the hole I cut. This was taken at 1/2 second shutter, F8 aperture, with the lens at about 18mm, and 100 ISO.
I use the potato chip bag clips and small wood clamps to hold all these sheets and fabrics in place. It looks rather Rube Goldberg, but it works.
