Abstract
To solve the problem of documentary photography of precious silver or other shiny objects, the author proposes use of a child's tent (The Wendy House or Rainbow Bright House ) which is easily constructed and disassembled from plastic tubework which can then be covered with a white sheet to diffuse light sources. Lighting can be made with portable electronic flash guns and where the ambient light is low enough to allow long exposure, the outside of the light-tent can be painted with light from one flash gun. The overall size of the erected framework is 40 x 30 x 44 to the apex. -- AATA
