Discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.

Disco glam

Love cheap lighting! The main lights for this shoot came from the local hardware store- 4 colored floodlight bulbs and inexpensive worklamp fixtures to hold the bulbs. Total cost- less than $50. While the whole shoot could have been done with these four lights, I did add a spinning disco light from Musician’s Friend that cost $79. (OK, so now we can turn the studio into a nightclub after hours…) You can see the set-up in the first image below. I hung the colored lights from a crossbar and suspended the multicolor sphere on another light stand.

The model brought the wig and fake fur vest. The exposures were pretty long- around 1/10th of a second- so I used a tripod for most of the shots. Fun!!

    Can we keep the disco light in the studio?
