Here's an example of a Light Tent, made by Lastolite, available from Adorama or B & H Photo. Can fold up into 16" round storage case.

Bulbs are now 105 wt CFB, equiv to 400 wt incandescent.

I could also use this outside.

Results look great!

After everything is set, use either the self-timer on your camera, or a camera remote control switch, wired or wireless.

f/23 @ 1 sec. - ISO 100 exposure on the knife photo.

Took out some KSC Press Materials I still have and the big camera. I could spend months playing with it all for a good shot. This is good enough for now.
If you look closely at about 7 O'Clock under the handle, you'll see a glimpse of the honor guard escorting the crew back for the memorial ceremony.

Captain Chris brought us a truly great Memorial Tribute Knife of the brave Challenger Mission Team (One of my most cherished knives)-Today is the 34th Anniversary of that Tragic Day in 1986. God Bless them and their Families for the ultimate sacrifice.

My HS library wheeled a couple of "AV carts" to the window and fired the TVs up so that students passing by in the hallway could watch a bit of the news between classes.

A few years ago I heard about the RMK “Mission Memorial” knife from some guy called Capt. Chris. My best friend Bill is a NASA nut. I talked him in to driving to Pigeon Forge with me to meet the Capt. at the Parker show. As we walked in I saw where the Capt. was set up. I told Bill to get his checkbook out because there was a knife over there that he was going to buy. After meeting Capt. and looking at the knife Bill asked how much and looked at me and smiled. Bill bought his first RMK and we both made a friend that day.

Amen! It was a memorable experience. And now...Dennis: You can get your checkbook out because you have another RMK just received!! (Ha-Ha)
Stay sharp, Capt. Chris
