Description
I've had my tongue in my cheek so much lately about my fancy lighting studio, I think I should tell you the truth again about what I'm really doing!
My "State-of-the-Art Backlighting Studio" is my living room window. It cost me nothing ... I open the drapes, and there's the light. :)
My "Low Light Studio" is a piece of black fabric on my ironing board, with a desk lamp off to the side and the camera on a tripod, using the timer.
That's it. That's all the fancy equipment I'm using for these light shots.
Oh ... see the dark outside edge on the fan? That's because one day I picked up the fan, bumped my arm on something, and dropped the fan in my Scotch!
..........

I do hope that it was some very good scotch! Great shot and wonderful little story to compliment the picture Thank you
Thanks for your recipe Tara. You may see it repeated here :-) Your end result is A-1. I'm stepping out the door for another moon shot...have never seen it brighter than tonight! We have low light polution around here...that helps. Bill
Both explanations and photo are interesting and pleasant. Thanks.
Wow, love the touch of scotch,, really warms it up!!
A great picture and the story was as good or better than the picture. You sure made me laugh about dropping it in the scotch. I hope it didn't ruin your drink.
MAGNIFICENT & SPLENDID CAPTURE
great shot!
Real patina on the edges...lol. what a story. Wonderful warm almost mystical mood whith a light.
Lol.. You are so funny. This shot is amazing I love your studio shots.;)
Sandalwood Scotch???? hmmmm????? Maybe you're on to something... ;-)
Really nice shot.. Love the scotch story ~
Marvellous!!! I always felt Scotch must have other uses!
What a use for Scotch lol... nice shot! :)
wonderful image and photo!!!
beautiful shot
Magnifique présentation
Beautiful atmosphere! :)
I hope you gave it a good suck when you took it out of the scotch Tara!!!! Stunning low light image of this beautiful work of art. You make me miss my mom - she had a wooden fan exactly like this and I loved the sound it made when you opened and closed it! :)
I'm a scotch fan too:)LOL@Carin she's a fan sucker :):)...Great image sweetie, nice textures in that fan.
Beautiful image! :)
What a lovely warm glow on that fan; bet it smells good too!
this has so much charisma, wonderful poetic feel, I really like this
super stuff my friend
this is really pretty.. I have a few of those fans too :) beautidul lighting on it
Such a very beautiful capture Tara. I like the simplicity and the lighting.
Very similar to my garage studio. I push all my tools, sprays and projects out to form a "gully" where I spread my $1 paper tablecloth from The Dollar Store, prop up the back with the pile of tools to make the "background" and then pull my 40w, swing-arm, shop light over. I can direction it as I please - back, front, side or down to one side. A tripod is a must and a timer as well and poof! I have photos. Some work, some don't but all is fun. If you guys could see the pile of saws, nails, glue guns, etc., around my flower shots, you'd crack up laughing. Love this shot and congratulations on harnessing the sun for your window lighting. :-)
WOWWWWWWWWW superb image!
Excellent work
How beautiful... great capture!!
I'm so glad you have the perfect living room window light. This is as elegant as a beautiful fan should be. I am waiting for a classically dressed Spanish lady to pick up and use it in a most languid upper class way.
