Our table top photography evening was our second practical evening of the season. There were several table tops set up with different lighting. Liz brought along some stressed plastic and polarising filters to bring out the coloured patterns in the plastic.
On one table we used continuous lights, which consisted of two angle poise lamps with daylight energy saving bulbs (with a diffuser in front of the lamp) and a slide light box (which makes a very good large light source).
Two people brought their light tents, one of which was lit with two flash guns with radio triggers.
We also had a large variety of subjects ranging from a chess set to mushrooms to flowers.
A lot was learned by all. It was especially good at making people discover functions on their cameras which they had never used before.
