Hi, i have a D7000, with 18-55 kit lens and the sigma 150mm macro. I also have an sb700 flash unit. I breed snakes, and i'd like to take some good quality shots of the hatchlings, to use in adverts etc. What id like achieve is just the snakes on a plain background (black or white depending on snake). Should i buy/make a lightbox, or just use a sheet of material on a table and bounce the flash? If i want to achieve a solid white/black background am i going to have to achieve this in post? From what ive read the idea is to light the background with a separate light and put enough space between the subject and the background so the light doesnt spill. obviously in this situation the snake is on the background so im a bit stumped!!
Thanks!!
Thanks!!
