Verilux (Ott light too) is as close to daylight as you can come in my opinion.&nbsp; I make sure the room is darkened so that the only light on the subject comes from my lamp(s).&nbsp; To further insure that no extra light is entering the room I&#039;ll borrow some black fabric from the wifes&#039; craft room and put it over the curtains.&nbsp; And heavens, turn off that flash.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
