    Thank you for breaking this down into simple steps! I really appreciate it! And as someone who works both in the arts and the lighting industry, I will say I'm glad you included lighting as an important step. You can make the most beautiful work in the world, but if no one can see it....what's the point. Anyway, thanks for the great lens!

    You might want to check your white balance settings on your camera to make sure they are set for the type of lighting you are using. Also make sure the flash is off. I've had bad luck with the lighting setup you describe, try one of the links for making a light tent it makes a big difference using one and they aren't hard to make.

    Taking your baskets outside will work, you shouldn't need your lights for that but you will need a backdrop setup so they look proffessional. Make sure you aren't taking the photos in direct sunlight because the lighting will be too strong, overcast days I've found work best.

    Question: Right now am taking pictures of my gift baskets and putting them on my site: www.basketsgalorebysylvia.com. I was told by a few who also take the same type pictures to try it this way and I have been doing it this way, but they still don't come out right most of the time, this what they told me: Put one light on each side/using round flood litght/100 watts and one in front about four or five feet away, turning all of them to the celling, am using Four prix digita. I try and postion the lights different ways, so am taking four or five shots of product in order to get the one that's ok, then I go back to my program and try and lighten up the photo. The gift basket exchange told me to take them outside, but it seems that I still have to take my lights with me and set-up. I really want to have a good presentation, with a business look.
