aihh TS - if so difficult, you could just find the corner of your living space (hopefully white walls and ceiling) then point the flash upwards and left, and the shoot. chances are you could get something decent.

anyway here's another example.


Single Flash Product Shoot by goldfries, on Flickr

Canon EOS 60D with EF 50mm f/1.8 II, pop-up triggering a Canon 430EX II speedlight placed 1-feet away from subject, with head tilted at 45 degree and fired at 1/4.

Camera setting is at 1/250 | ISO100 | f/8 | 5500 Kelvin WB

Subject placed on black cloth, with a styrofoam board just about 4 inches behind the subject.

Image was taken in JPG. This image was direct from camera (meaning no alteration to colors nor brightness - only watermarked and resized).

The photo shoot session was about 10 minutes.
