The Zack Arias white seamless tutorial has been a great resource for setting up my home studio. I am sure it could be of use to many others as well. http://www.zarias.com/?p=71

Butt Reactor posted:What's some good settings for trying to shoot meteor showers? Last year I left my D70 take 30 sec exposures, and while I got nice starry skies, I didn't get a drat meteor streak (and if I did, it sure didn't show up or looked more like noise to me). Speaking of ISO, what works best? I was bouncing between 400 and 800 last year. You need a longer shutter speed. The ISO setting will only affect the f-stop and digital noise. Either of which wont attain the star streak you are looking for. I recommend anywhere from 1-3min and see if you attain the level of exposure you want then adjust your aperture setting for the amount of ambient light you want. I would use a lower ISO (100-200) to obtain a cleaner shot with less noise. Times longer than 30sec create additional noise on the image. Definitely practice under a starry sky first and you will need some sort of remote trigger because hand holding the Bulb even on a tripod will cause blur.

How long ago did we stop doing the weekly photo competition thread? Was there just not much participation anymore?
