Becoming a familiar setup :)
Simple setup of 2 sheets of tracing paper seperated by about 2inches/50mm to give a good even spread of light. Behind this there are 3 x 20W CFL lamps shining directly onto the screen.
The bottle is placed on a polythene business card box to raise it above the sheet of glass which has white card under it. This is flanked either side by sheets of black card to bring out contrast.
Though it appears this was taken in the dark, it wasn't, the room was well illuminated at the time, the concentrated light and aperture/shutter speed keeping out extra light.
Setup shot for this photo.
A pretty basic "dark field" setup. SB-800 in the 47" octa, an SB-600 with a blue gel in the snoot and another SB-600 in the small softbox. Triggered with Cybersyncs.
Canon 5D Mark III, Canon EF 70-200mm ƒ2.8L IS II USM @ 123mm. Key light: Profoto B1 500 Air TTL in a Profoto 2' x 2' softbox, slaved to the fill light. Fill light: Canon 600EX-RT in a Westcott softbox, triggered by a Canon ST-E3-RT radio remote. In addition, Leona held a piece of white foamcore board to reflect light and further soften shadows.
The camera was in manual mode (see Exif on the previous photo ) and both flashes were in manual mode. The Canon 600-EX-RT has plenty of power for use in a softbox; I had to dial down the power to 1/16 of full power +⅓ stop. One can quibble endlessly over fill. Dialing it down a little further might have given a more pleasing fill-to-key ratio, but If I am to err on a female portrait I prefer to err on the side of a lower ratio. I confirmed flash fill ratio and aperture with a Sekonic L478D incident light meter.
Wouldn't it be fantastic if all manufacturers could agree on a single standard for flash-triggering radio!? There would still be room for various manufacturers to sell their own brand of triggers, but they would work with everyone else's cameras and flashes, both radio-equipped Speedlite types and studio strobes.
I made this setup photo with a Canon 60Da DSLR and a Canon 16-35mm lƒ2.8L II USM lens. In this instance I used the 60Da's small built-in flash to trigger the two softbox strobes. The built-in flash did not contribute to the light in this setup photo.

I took a picture of a blank card in a pile of coffee beans today. I though I'd share the "simple" setup with you. Who needs a light tent when you can build one with things you get for free.
It's basically a one-light setup with a single Cullman CX 35 at 1/4 power on top of the light tent at about 90° to the camera axis
List of materials:
2 foam cards + 1 foam stripe in front as well as smaller parts in the back
6 empty bottles of beer
5-in-1 reflector
Tripod
Cullman CX 35 Flash
Canon 400D + EF 50mm F/1.4 USM

This is my basic setup for sumi-e painting.
As the paper is highly absorbent one works on a piece of felt that leeches away excess water.
There are many sizes and types of fude (brushes) but for one painting I can usually get by using one, two or, at the most, three brushes.
The suzuri (ink grinding stone) is usually carved from natural stone.
The sumi (ink stick) is made from a combination of soot and animal glue.
The ceramic dish, kikuzara (chrysanthemum shaped), is used to mix shades pf gray from the freshly ground black ink.
The orange toweling rags are to pat and dry the fude.
Sitting on the top of the painting on the felt is the bunchin, a weight to hold the paper in place.
A container to hold water, of course.
Last but not least is the bamboo thingy holding the sumi, ink stick stub, sitting on the suzuri. I have no idea what it's called in Japanese (the Japanese that I've asked about it didn't even know such a tool existed, even though I bought it there!), but it's designed to and works great to hold stubs of your sumi for grinding when they become too short to hold in your hand.

DISCLAIMER: That is not the arm pit of Mer, it was Photoshop, and yes she was sitting next to me when I did it, no she wasn't mad, and yes we did have a good laugh about it...hahahaha
The setup for a 'practice photoshoot' at IT Mill - the plan is to photo the whole staff at some point, but the plan is progressing slowly. This time we tried a dark theme. And since it was a 'practice' session, we didn't bother to iron the backdrop. Mental note to self: always iron the backdrop ;-)
Strobist info:
Flash 3 was as pictured above for 'Jukka' -photos, and bounced of a white sheet of paper on the laptop screen for the 'Sami' -photos.
For the IT Mill Photogs group.
A familiar setup for subjects on a black glass/acrylic base, acrylic here as the amount of dust will indicate.
Main difference to my usual setup, is the addition of a white reflector above. This is a cheap white memo board which sometimes gets hung on the wall for scribbling notes on. Often described as a dry wipe board, which uses pens with water based inks that will just wipe off with a dry cloth.
This is just resting on top of a pair of tracing paper screens, through which the Neewer SF-01 mini slave flashes are fired. Both activated by Blazzeo SLT-4 radio triggers mounted on mini tripods. The flashes are shielded from the black backdrop which is approx 12inches/300mm behind by a couple of sheets of black card attached to the screens with clothes pegs.
Simple but effective :)
The finished image is shown below:
Lighting glass from behind with a couple of 20W CFL lamps.
The lamps were placed behind a screen of 2 layers of tracing paper placed about 2inches/50mm apart to give a more even spread of light.
The vase is placed on a sheet of glass painted black on the underside, which gives the reflection.
This is flanked on either side by sheets of black card, to darken the edge of the stem of the vase.
Probably sounds more complicated than it is, but hopefully the pic shows how simple the setup is.
Worth noting on the shot below is the darker base, which was achieved by raising the camera higher than in this setup shot. I happened to like that a bit better ;-)
Trying to perfect my setup at the moment. Have the dual screen going here, with the iPhone plugged into a USB hub sitting under the desk which is also plugged into a hard drive and other goodness. Will try and get a better shot in some natural light :)

Setup shot for Alan Brogan, Jermain Defoe, Ashley Young, and Roman Pavlychenko. Notes should explain everything. All the lights are so far apart because of having to allow for their run up when they went sprinting past the camera.

My little mac setup, just need a midi keyboard to finish it up. Wish I could go for a somewhat minimalistic look but those gay victorian wall frames kill it. -_-
