After the tests with the black background which were a bit monotone, time for a splash of colour :)
Bit extreme maybe, but I like this bright orange Fun Foam, wait until you see the red, LOL.
First time trying 2 lamps with the tent. I did try from the sides, but didnt like the resulting shadows, still some experimenting to be done there to find the best way of doing it.

Ok so I don't have any lights set up or anything. I just clamped this shower curtain to a beam in my basement. There isn't much room for lights here. But this is a great temp area to work. Setup shot for:

From photoclub photo session. Small studio. Lots of gear & photographers = controlled chaos. Got some frames with somebody's leg or head in the picture :) Good times.
My one light setup for small product shots which has appeared several times before :)
A sweep of white cartridge paper (A3_ for the background.
A yongnuo YN460 flash set to 1/2 power and activated by a Blazzeo SLT-4 radio trigger.
A Pringles tube attached to act as a striplight reflector. This one is a little different to the one I normally use, which just has an opening covered in tracing paper to act as a diffuser.
This has a similar sized opening, but has the flaps from the opening retained and folded out to give additional reflection. This gives a harder light, for more of a shadow, which I felt suited this shot.
I see my Yongnuo SYD-0808 LED video light managed to sneak into the frame at the front left. This is used to aid focussing and to act as a work light. it is so much weaker than the flash, that is is left on at 1/2 power the whole time and has no effect on the image.
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 :)

South Carolina Department of Social Services (DSS) staff and volunteers work together to welcome local residents and do what it takes to quickly and efficiently review and process applications at a temporary U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (D-SNAP) processing centers such as this one in the North Charleston Coliseum where county residents recovering from severe flooding have come to, in North Charleston, SC, on Tuesday, Nov. 17, 2015.
In times of emergency, FNS coordinates with state and federal partners, as well as local volunteer organizations, such as the American Red Cross and Salvation Army, to provide USDA Foods to shelters and other mass feeding sites and, in limited cases, distribute food packages directly to households in need. USDA Foods are 100% domestically produced, processed and procured agricultural commodities that are made available to schools, tribes, and low-income individuals through FNS Nutrition Assistance Programs. Once retail food stores reopen, if survivors still need nutrition assistance and the area has received a ‘Presidential Disaster Declaration with Individual Assistance,’ State agencies may request to operate D-SNAP. People who may not normally qualify for nutrition assistance benefits may be eligible for D-SNAP if they had disaster-related expenses, such as loss of income, damage to property, relocation expenses, and, in some cases, loss of food due to power outages. Those already participating in the SNAP may be eligible for supplemental benefits under D-SNAP. For more information please visit this web site: www.fns.usda.gov/disaster.

Not recommended for those of a nervous disposition :)
All setup ready to add the flammable liquid to the spoon. For this I use cigarette lighter fluid, which is neat petroleum spirit and must be used with caution. One advantage of placing it in a metal spoon is that the flame is kept confined and only a couple of drops are needed.
Lighting of the spoon from below is done with a makeshift light table.
This is a cardboard box with a white interior which has a 20watt stick type CFL lamp in it.
On top of the box a sheet of glass which is in turn covered with the white nylon front panel from a light tent, but any white material that lets light through will do, even a sheet of white paper.
As I wanted a red colour light, a vacuum formed tray from a pack of cakes was used and surrounded with black cards to block the white light from escaping.
Finally, a sheet of black fun foam is placed about 12inches/300mm behind for the background. Much better than any other material I have tried for absorbing light and doesnt reflect it like paper or card.
