Hi,

I have a Canon PowerShot G2 and need to take some photos of some white, plastic lotion bottles for an upcoming website...

I don't have any fancy equipment...so, I'd like to do this with common household stuff, if that is possible...

I know a lot of you here are pretty smart and innovative, so I believe I am at the right place.

I have a small daylight-type desk lamp (OTTlite) if that will help, and I can get some white poster board or something. What do you think?

I tried taking some quick shots straight on, but got a bunch of ugly shadows.

I'd appreciate any help you can provide me (links, instructions...).

Thanks for helping a gal out...

Hugs,

p-tog

Do you have a web site where you can post your pictures? :)
