My husband, Vic, built this lightbox for me at a fraction of the cost of those of similar size (21.50x17.75) we found online. And it works beautifully! Please check out the downloads. Canon 24-105 on all but lightbox (Sony RX100M3...Vic's pic).
Anyone interested in the method I use to create my 'translucents', here is the link to my previous post based on Harold Davis' technique. Also anybody interested in building the lightbox, let me know, and I'll send you the instructions.

A really beautiful set, Donna and Vic's lightbox shows outstand craftmanship and if I can complete Basic Photography 101 before I reach the century mark just maybe...Take care, Corky

Bruce and Dan...I'll send you both a Word doc by PM later today.


I'd also like a copy, please. Very nice pics.
The biggest challenge will be keeping the box from my quilting wife.

Your flowers are stunning Donna and what a handy hubby you have! Unfortunately mine is not allowed anything sharp or electrical in his hands......fingers could be cut off or he could electrocute himself, I do not jest. He is definitely not a handyman.

Aww...what a lovely thing to say, Greg! To be honest, he has way many more talents than I do.

LOL Corky, your photography is first class, and I think it's time for you to build a lightbox! Just let me know if you want the plans, and they're yours in a jiffy. Thanks so much, Corky!
