Artist's Comments

:eager: Do it, do it, dooooo iiiiiiittttt!
Any questions? Go ahead and ask!


Might just clear up a few things right here. :giggle: I'm using a Nikon D60 + kit lens (Nikkor 18-55mm).
For my macro shots I use macro filters which are muuuuch cheaper than macro lenses of course (you see I'm all about saving money lol).

Find a cropped and slightly edited version of the example picture here:

Okay, I'm in the middle of the process of making this, and I've got one question - does the flash go inside the box, because mine tends to remain just on the edge of the hole.

Oh, and another question - how much of the bottom should remain?

I have my flash inside the box but I guess it would be ok if you cut off the top like you did the bottom or made a bigger hole.

The bottom side of the box shouldn't be longer than the camera + lens. The sides and top I've kept pretty long, but you can always cut them to make them shorter. Am I making any sense?

I guess I'm just going to try. We seem to have very similar cameras, that's the good point in following this tut. I've got Nikon D40, and now I'm going to try and locate some rubber bands, and then head to my garden to try this out.
