I've been wanting to make one of those "light boxes" for my food photography but haven't done it yet...I'm thinking maybe one or two of these easy clamp lights might get me inspired to go all the way!

My photography skills have a long way to go... and I know that lighting is one of the most important things to get a handle on.<br /><br />You bought regular clamp lights, and do you use soft white bulbs? Do you ever diffuse light? My flash is also a built-in. Do you use your hot shoe? <br /><br />Wow. I'm barraging you.
