Thanks for the comments on my plugs and photos. I didn't mean to hijack someone's thread. I just wanted to show how you can make a simple light box to get even lighting. I used a white plastic shower curtain from the dollar store to make the sides of my light box and printer paper taped to the inside to reflect the light around. You can change the base color with some colored construction paper.

I haven't tried those plugs I made yet, the water around my house is too hard -- but spring is on the way!

Get a cheap talbe top tripod to get crisp closeups.
No flash from the camera.

i just put them on the kitchen table and point the trac lights at them, make sure the table is clean too. no flash and a steady hand. there's a little flower button on my camera. i don't know what it means but the pictures come out nicer after i push it. i think it's for close ups.
if the sun is coming thru the window even better.
