<p>[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 10064189, member: 1765"]The best lighting is lighting you can control. You need to control location, diffusion, and color temperature. Lamps than be easily lifted, held, posed, and moved are the best. To control diffusion, add a tissue or deli container lid, assuming the bulb is cool enough. You could also use an additional piece of white paper as a reflector for diffuse fill light. To control color temperature, use all the same bulbs and shut out other light. The light coming through your window is the worst for all of these and is especially ineffective at night.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
