Lighting problem solved

When I retired I packed away most of my studio lighting and began doing jigsaw puzzles. I have had a problem with getting even light over the puzzle and all the unused pieces. So I set up this 14x60 softbox with one of my white lightning x1600 lights. The light seems a little dim but it is a lot easier finding the correct pieces.

Doesn't the constant flashing make it hard to work?:)

A dual-use light! Great!

It's funny, but taking a quick look at your title, I saw "Lightroom Problem Solved."

If you want more light, remove the grid. If you have an extra diffusion sheet inside, remove that too.

As we age doctors start posing cognition questions - for pre-dementia reasons. We won't snitch on ya.

New glasses needed? Or perhaps paying closer attention? I know that I've made the same type of mistake by anticipating what I thought was coming!

That solved the problem of not enough light, thank you.
