Red Hot!

A sort of emergency blip, although I had already decided that I would 'blip' this
Chilli, before it ends up in the stir-fry. Not had much chance for photography, as
I'm back on nightshift until Thursday morning!!!

Tonight I have been experimenting with background lighting using a low power bulb to illuminate the white paper backdrop from behind, while lighting the subject from both sides with 2 100w spotlamps (another forum suggests 2x 500w floodlights for better results ~ they do look better to be sure). For the floor, a black shiny DVD case does the job, just get the camera level with it! Still I am pleased with the results, as well as the 'cross processing' in photoshoppe!
