Ha! I spend a lot of time thinking about light Bruce. I really do my best to avoid artificial light, and I am so pleased that you can bump up ISO a bit now with the latest cameras, tripods give you longer shutter times and reflectors are so useful. However, that has got to change. I read that really difficult subjects to correctly light for are black objects on black backgrounds; how you light them gives them their shape and separates them from the background. I'm going to invest in some lighting equipment nearer the end of the year and overcome this reluctance to this subject, and give problem lighting situations a go. Seeing I wait ages for the right light sometimes, the opportunity to create my own actually sounds a great idea!
