    Hi Folks,

    I'm looking for a sheet or two of something I can use as a semi reflective base for subects to stand on. I see tile board mentioned all over the place in strobist / flickr etc but cannot seem to find anything similar on these shores.

    any ideas or alternatives for taht reflective look?

    thanks

    Apparently a sheet of perspex with something black/white beneath it works - can't vouch for it myself - just something I remember seeing.
