Exactly, Mike. I started with an almost completely blown out image for the base to get the whitest background and then built from there. Some of my stacks were 12 or more images, but I most often found I needed about 4 depending on the image. I noticed that Harold Davis did all sorts of complicated work on his, but I don't have his expertise and made mine simpler.


Thanks! That is very interesting.

Mike

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.
