Ok I have a few questions about some santa pics I am going to do...

First

what is the best thing for a back drop? can I use a white sheet and then drag the photo over top of something else

what lighting should I use ? I don't have any special lights for photo work... but I do have some halogen lights could I use them if I used some sheets are something to calm the light down..

last but not least what angle seems to be the best?

should I try and put the tripod on a table and have the angle shooting down on them are should I have it level are down below santas chin...

thanks for any tips I get ...

and Merry Christmas to you all...

Can't give you much tips on shooting him, but if you meet him, please please _please_ tell him how nice I've been this year, and that I wish myself the following:

16-35 f/2.8L (or 17-40 f/4L if his a cheap bastard)
24-70 f/2.8L
70-200 f/2.8L IS
550EX (a couple of them please)

If it isn't to much bother, I would like a backpack for it, and the optional truck :)
