Love me new ceiling tiles.

EXCELLENT! I've been wanting to use some tin tiles for a while and have been eyeing them every time I have to go into Lowes or Home Depot! Nice job with these

Have you seen the ones the polypaper backdrop companies (eg LemonDrop) offer of these? I like them - and they'd be WAY easier to handle in my space - but I've been wary of using a *flat* image of something textured, since I think the light won't read in a very natural way.

I would be very wary of a model who could hang upside down from the ceiling!

Sam, that was the major factor. She kept coming loose!!!

It looks like some of the tiles got dented or smashed. Would it be possible to fill up the back of the tile with something like epoxy or plaster, increasing the strength?

I should not have had her leaning on her elbow, that increased the pressure there. The tiles are very thin and they pop right back into shape. That was my first time with the tiles so I'm learning how to use them better. Some of the raised areas might be a 1/4 inch.

Sometimes being photographers we worry toooooo much about the little things. I wan't bothered about the bend. I simply put them on the floor and went for it. Others have mounted them to luan but that seemed like too much work.
