Soft box
The translucent light produced by these Soft boxes has been the photographer’s friend for years. The new fabrics are much more resistant to the effects of heat, age and pollution. The color temperature of this new soft box is near neutral, and will stay that way.

I am looking for a way to do full body shots. Will this do or do I need more Watts.
Do you mean 300 all together or each strobe??

Best answer:

Answer by cubfan745
I think you will need more power for full length shots. This might – might – be adequate for portraits.

300 watt-second strobes (300ws per strobe, 600ws for two)is about the minimum for full length, but having your main light be more powerful than that is better (but you can grow into it, too).

The softboxes have to get bigger, too. While they diffuse light, they also add some directionality, too. Look for one to be something like 36×48, or an octabox type softbox of 48 inches or so.

Some cool lighting accessories, images:

Little Digger from the 7th Light Horse Regiment

Image by drakegoodman

Unused.

The following assessment of this little bloke’s uniform and accessories has been graciously provided by the one, the only, Mr Aaron Pegram – khaki aficionado and historian at the Australian War Memorial:

"My educated guess is that daddy was a 1915 reinforcement to the 7th Light Horse Regiment (service bars, colour patch, lanyard, spurs) who most probably won his Military Medal in Sinai-Palestine (the regiment was also on Gallipoli), and that the photo was taken in 1919 after he returned to Australia.

ARI- Men’s/ Unisex Autumn Collision Scarf In Hues of Purple Blue & Brown

Image by smittenkittenorig

It took a bit of doing to get this shot right with the lighting but I finally pulled it off. I love the colors in this scarf & it was well worth the time it took.

Golden Reflections

Crystal rounds reflect light from each of their 48 brilliant facets in this chain of silver and gold. Rajasthani silver rope links pull it all together for a timeless look that goes with almost any outfit. Add a matching bracelet that can also lengthen the necklace. Wear it long or double it up for a layered choker. (D2)

These are my upgrades and accessories fitted to my KMX Tornado. Thanks Richard for shooting the video.

Question by Megirl: Where can I get cute hair accessories?

I always wear my hair down to school. I want to have some cute headbands/bows/clips so that I could do something a little different with my hair. I have light brown hair that goes a little bit past my shoulders. Do you know any places that I could get cute accessories? Or do you know any cute hairstyles for me (my hair likes to stay in a part)? Pictures would be great!

Thanks ahead of time!
My hair is pretty thick and is mainly straight.

Question by Nimmíreth: Do junction boxes stay stationary in a house, or do they come with light fixtures?

And do the wires that you would connect to a light fixture come into the junction box and stay there (so they’re easily accessible when you want to install something) or do you have to dig for them?

Best answer:

Answer by david
the boxes are installed at the time of construction and the wiring is also ran then. A junction box is installed whenever a splice is made in an already existing line. This helps eliminate the chance of fire should a short occur.
