Considering the unlit pit my basement **was** when I got my house my concern was just getting it lit. For the entire basement there was 2) 100 watt bulbs - recessed IN the rafters - and 8 feet total of fluorescent lights, Kelvin etc was not my concern. It was almost like a dank desolate dungeon! I now have about 90 running feet of fluorescent lights that mostly are the newer thinner tubes that are energy saving. It is split in 2 switch zones by ½ of the basement. I installed the fixtures at about where I thought the layout would be and it really worked out well. Now with the layout and lights up it would be pretty difficult to install a finished ceiling. About 1/3 of the basement has it now which came with the house.
As for the background I just went to Home Depot and picked a sky blue color I liked. The woman at the paint counter has worked there too long and offered NO help! (:->) With the fluorescent lighting and background color I figured I would deal with photography issues when I get to it.
