Par Cans Lighting
Can I use a Par Can as Photography lighting?
i used to be a DJ before i got into photography. i have leftover lighting, and i was using if i could use an old par can as lighting.
i don't have much extra money for "professional" lighting right now because i am always traveling.
please help!!!
Hi Ray,
Of course you can! Photography at its essence is a drawing (graph) made with light (photo) so any light source can help you to create a photograph.
I also dabbled in the sound and stage industry before becoming a pro, so I understand the lighting you are talking about. Firstly you will need to use the tungsten white balance to counter act the red in the light. Other issues you may face is that the light may not be bright enough. If you are shooting people this is a problem as you wont be able to get the right shutter speed to aperture to ISO you need for a good shot, but if you are shooting objects you can simply use a tripod and extend the exposure.
In my commercial photography I have used all types of lights to create images. From a humble desk lamp to my four 500watt flash heads, I use what ever will do the job.
If you are serious about growing a business you will need to invest in some studio lights at some time but start where you are at and grow as your market does.
Yours Nathan,

DMX Par Cans Pt 2 of 2 - Editing,Programing & Chasing Scenes
where can i buy some really cute denim shorts?
where can i get a cute par of shorts that are light washed our dark doesn't matter
Just bought a new pair of shorts at forever 21! Best fit and most comfortable pair I have ever bought! Great prices as well! American Eagle, Hollister, and Abercrombie also have really cute shorts but sometimes they can be a little out rageous in the pricing and arent the most comfortable pair to wear around.
If you can get into samurai series check out Shigurui. It's dark, violent and very bloody.
