Macro Photography DIY – How to Make a Photography Light Box

It is always great fun to snap macro photographs of bugs, snakes, lizards and other creepy crawlers. Some of the most memorable photographs we’ve seen in recent months have been macro photographs of small animals and insects. However, taking a picture of these little guys in their native environments isn’t always that easy. Some macro photographers prefer to humanely capture their subjects and photograph them in a studio.
