Experimenting with a light box

Experimenting with a light box

Strangely, wally world was blowing out these light boxes w/ lights, so I picked one up. I have zero experience with light boxes, so I don't know if it's a good or bad one. Here are three shots I have taken so far with it. I did substitute one of the included lights with a much brighter studio light I had.

What am I doing right and what am I doing wrong?

Nice work. I built my own

Nice work. I built my own for free. Here is the link. http://strobist.blogspot.com/2006/07/how-to-diy-10-macro-photo-studio.ht...
I had all the material lying around the house. I am using an old Quantaray SB6500a flash.

Let's go even simpler...

Nothing to build and very little to buy or store, assuming you already have a flash. Read more here:
