Added some more lights to my lightbox so I don't have to use a flash anymore. I also got higher wattage bulbs to replace the ones I had before (100W) Tried out a rose. Going to take some pictures of some Whiskey I have later, and post those too.

These are nice, but what's the point of more lights? Shutter speed should do the same thing?

Not necessarily. I got lights for the top, didn't have any before. Makes the image more evenly lit, and less shadows. Also, I don't have to use a flash, where as before I did.

Ah, I thought you already had lights.

I did have lights, but only one on each side. I added two more for the top. Before I was using a flash and bouncing it off the cieling of the box. That was sort of unwieldly, because I had to get the flash actually inside the box itself, which created some framing/focusing problems due to closeness of the lens.
