An aside. When I was coming upstairs from taking the photo you see above, I turned and looked back down the stairs at the table. Perhaps it would be of interest to show the table top setup?
Here's a picture taken looking down into the room. The room is dark. I have to turn off the overhead florescent light when I work. It messes up the incandescent settings on the camera. You will see a light lying on the floor. It is used to paint light in background areas or as an accent light. It is hand held. You can see the handle of the tripod between the two lights.
Waiting for the paint to dry...
Cheers...John
