    Made a lightbox and tried out my Sigma 105mm macro for the first time

    Very nice work!! My only crit against it is that the inside top of the salt shaker takes away from the shot. Now that's just being REALLY pin-díckity and harsh. Again nothing against the shot I think it's great, Just trying to give some feedback as to what I think could make it even better :)

    Do you mean the dust from the salt, wasn't happy with that myself.
    Have to get a Q-tip in there and clean it (next time):D, thanks for the comment

    Yup, I meant the dust :)

    Was it tough to make the lightbox? Any tips?

    Here's a link someone posted here a couple of weeks backs
    http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/how-to-make-a-inexpensive-light-tent/

    It was easy enough to build, but I think if you were handy with timber, I'd make four frames from 2" X 1" ( 50mm X 25mm ) and have it fixed to a base, alot easier to streach the material over.

    woohoo ! another home-made lightbox ! Nice work. Not perfect (too dark as already suggested) but good start.

    I made one too and mine arent perfect either.
