[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 260629, member: 16"] Muslin is arguably the best material for backdrops in photography, but they come with a steep price tag. At least here in Calgary they do. So....I made my own backdrop out of bed sheets,,,one black and one grey. I had them sewn back to back, making them versatile for almost any situation. I use two light stands with a break-down bar to hold the sheet up (which I made). Another material to use is tie dyed cotton. I even use corrugated poster board for some of my shots. Other materials I use are natural backdrops (on location) and foam board back drops for smaller subjects. Use your imagination to come up with backdrop ideas. :) [/QUOTE]
