With this photo I used my softbox. (a sort of flash)
I personally like natural light better.

    The softness adds a big of magical touch Ellen, I also agree with you however; I do enjoy the natural light on your gorgeous little “critters” .. :-)) This is wonderful and brings such a much needed smile right now; I’m up to my ears in technical stuff…….

  • Glad you like it :) The softbox gives a totally different atmosphere and isnt so easy to use. So I have only used it once.
    Thanks for your comment!

    About the lightbox, I know what you mean, but it must help you a lot to have faster shutterspeeds. I think it gives a different look all together, great too :)

  • The shutterspeed doesnt go over 250 seconds. Normally i use higher iso and a bit higher shutterspeed.
    Its difficult to take photos inside the home, because i dont have any sunshine in the livingroom. Thanks for your comment!

    lower ISO is better…., although I love the softness of higher ISO. We don’t get much light in the home (nor in the street mind you) in Britain either.. :(
