This doesn't invoke any kind of thought at all huh. Have I been blackballed?:confused:

I think it's interesting (I thought it was a lite-bright at first.) Not sure what to offer in terms of C/C, except that it's an idea worth pursuing and while this one is interesting, you might with some experimentation hit on something even better.

Your not the first one to think it's a Light Bright, that seems to be a common theme. I try not to let the next on look so "Light Brighty".

I appreciate you thoughts.

Kaur?

Possibly S&W?

Good guess, it does kind of resemble a Sigma, but alas, it's a Steyr S series.

Here's a clear shot I took experimenting with a new light box.

Thanks.
I think I'm going to try to something with roses or carnations next. The problem I had with the pellets is that there glow isn't very strong so you have to hit them with a lot of light and then take the picture quick. I don't know how well they'll show up down in side a flower.

If you can find a black light somewhere, they will glow without needing to charge them.

Cool idea, look forward to seeing some more!
