How to shoot texture

akazoly · Apr 6, 2008

Is possible to shoot texture using a cloth as subject ? The cloth has some cool texture.

I need the light tent ? I think I don't have shadows, shooting only a cloth.
Is a good idea to put the cloth on plexiglas and bottom light the cloth ?

Thanks!

To bring out texture in cloth put your light at allmost same plane as the subject and scrafe the light across it . As in lay a flashlight flat on the table and adjust the angle by putting a book under the back of light.
