DIY Poor Man's Soft-box (with tutorial)

[Knibitz]

(xpost from DoA)
As with almost every evening, I was wide awake at obscene hours of the night and feeling like taking photos, but I was getting frustrated with my desk lamp and just decided that I was going to make myself a softbox out of what I had laying around my house.


Surprisingly, it wasn't that hard, and I'm quite happy with the results


Nikon D7000
50mm f/1.8 AF-S Nikkor


ISO 200
1/100
f/1.8
(lamp in otherwise pitch black room)

If anyone is interested in a tutorial of how to make one, I threw up a walk through on my blog @ knibitz.netMy blog also has all my previous Photoshop tutorials, and it will be where I post tutorials in the future
