Photography Lighting Tip By Ahmad Firdaus Ismail Since I join stock photography I always wanted to snap photos with isolated white backgrounds. I tried to mock up white backgrounds with white plain paper but it was not good enough. Until one day when I was window shopping in a supermarket, I noticed that they are using simple small spotlight to highlight some items. From there I was observing on some of simple lighting at the office and shopping complexes. Until one day I went to a lighting shop and asked for a simple home spotlight. I thought the price could be up to RM50-RM100 ringgit ($15-$30), but then actually a simple reflector just cost me RM10 ($3). In addition to that, you probable need wires and a plug which cost you another RM10 ($3). You could save more if you can salvage the wires from your house. Finally, to complete the set, an energy saving white color bulb which cost me RM20 ($6) for the 23W, the brightest in the energy saving bulbs family.
