I hate Winter.....it was 0F -6 wind chill yesterday morning. :(:

I figured it was time to get back to the light tent.
Decided to Photograph some of my Diecast Cars I've been picking up lately.
Make for good practice! :thumb

    Hi Jim, a lot of folks collect these Diecast Cars.
    Friends of mine in Montana have almost a whole basement full in the original box's, he's a big time collector of these cars.

    I noticed the colour of the background is different for both shots?
    Little on the greyish/pinkish side for the first one?

    Thanks for sharing your hobby Jim thumb.gif ... Skippy :D

    Thanx!
    Yeah have yet to quite figure out the right camera settings for the goofy lights I use....tried all WB settings and no happy medium.
    White BG ALWAYS comes out dark tan or pinkish.
    One of my sore spots using a Digital cam I have yet to get over! headscratch.gifne_nau.gif
    So I play around with the hues and such in CS3....not always a exact match. rolleyes1.gif
