You are certainly on your way.Oooh yea,it's not dialed in,I used a bit of 2 mil I just got in mail w my fly ribbons but look at middle plant!! If you zoom in it has the effect I looking for !!!! You a genius lc!!!
I just threw it together but it worked !! Once I dial it in it's a wrap!!...
Wedged my vac in-between suitcase n wall to hold diffuser up...
And this is my 2nd and 3rd lighting lol plus I have grow lights behind me too
Once I get it down perfect it will work I believe,???
When you're ready for practice, get closer in to the subject, if it's just one plant, and try to mostly fill the frame with it. That saves time on any cropping.
Are you using a phone, or camera? You might be able to set exposure on your phone camera/app and dial that down a little. It's overexposing with all of the light available.These just a Few more attempts but it's too bright Maybe more diffuse, I tried up close,far away,far away then zoom, flash, no flash ECT it def seems I need to keep working the setup until I am happy,I also had to throw away black fabric so I used one of my work sweaters for now
Look online for videos or user guides for the camera feature on your model phone. There's a video for everything out there, and it's free. LOLThe pic you adjusted looks Soo much better,that's exactly what I'm trying to get close too. I am on a phone and I'm a bit of a boomer with tech but I can adjust that stuff and figure it out now with this lil setup my pics gonna look high times pics thanks again ladycannafan.
I found some settings but there's more ..
As you can see, what I did was manipulated the exposure down so the light isn't so hazy and plant washed out. You can see the leaves have blown out highlights from too much light, so adjusting the amount of bright light down a little will help with that. (I did my best to correct that, but I was limited a bit) That's what diffusers will fix. Setting your camera exposure down will help a lot with that problem. Play around with it.
I also used the crop tool to rotate the image a little to get that "horizon" line straight. Where the two fabrics meet. Also a little cropping all around it.
You did a pretty good job with focus on the plant.
Next time you take a photo shoot of a plant or plants, try to get the lighting and scene the way you want it. Then take a shot, and if it is under or overexposed, adjust your camera settings and take another shot. Doing the adjusting to a shot like the one above that was overexposed a bit much to begin with, will be hard to edit and look natural. ie; too green or colors not accurate.I found some settings but there's more ..
Looks way to green huh ?? It's actually really hard to edit photos lolol cuz I'm looking at pic so long I forget what it needs to look like ....very weird lol I think there is more settings if I enter my photos thru the camera.
Nice I'm down for that, a picture taking class would be very helpful. After playing a bit I realize it's gonna take a bit of practice to even be able to see what I want outta a pic,let alone adjust it correctly to bring out the inner perfection lolNext time you take a photo shoot of a plant or plants, try to get the lighting and scene the way you want it.

Ideally, we want it acceptable when we take the shot and little to no editing required. But we know that doesn't always happen.
Kudos to you for your practicing!
Sometime in January, I have planned a couple of step by step photo shoots to post to my off topic thread, showing my set up method and procedure.
Way too busy right now with Christmas and New Year.
He did not ask nor did he smell anything,I also don't know if he saw it at all. Even if he did it's rec legal in CT. I just prefer to keep it low down. I'm still gonna have a steady harvest cycle going for sure just need to rethink it a bit. it's just a studio 4 walls lol but I do have a cabinet for dishes and some plant stuff ??? HmmmmSome people use a closet.
Not sure what room you have sorry.
Stay safe

What y'all think about this space?
Thank you for the idea brDepends on what size girls you are going to put in there.
What about a wardrobe?
Buy one and put it in a corner.

Yea that's a good idea,could set big tv cabinet in room n won't look funny. My only other option is to upgrade my clone room,if I can create that tote water cloner w airstones like I was shown recently I can keep veg room small. Cus out of the 18 clones I'll take right before I flip my flower room,I will only be choosing 6 to upgrade to veg the rest will be killed. So maybe I should focus on clone room,instead of veg room ? And a function space for 18 clones is much smaller then a veg room
