There, in a sense, really is no *subject* at all. Because posting photos of lamps themselves is not part of gardening.

I'm looking for such answers as "can I learn to take better photos indoors?" This following question wasn't asked, but if the answer to the previous question is in the positive, "then how?" since lighting is so different in the house.

And also, though the lamps are NOT the subject, I will share with you what I am hoping for, and it must follow a story, if you feel like reading: Now I own a duplex, and live in one apartment and did rent out the other. I happened to rent to two young giddy 'girls' (I will say), and they happened to be night owls. They loved to go out in my garden at night with the flashlight and look at my flowers. This experience was a real joy to them, though they irritated me many times keeping me up in the night, and then 'accusing me' of disturbing them (while I was weeding near their bedroom) during the day.

So based on this experience, their loving to visit my garden at night, I want to be able to take night photos of my flowers . . . which doe pertain to gardening.

So then, by setting up such a display, *indoors* can I learn to take photos outdoors, and even fireworks photos which does not pertain to gardening?

I know nothing about exposure?
. . . it's always better to ask questions, than jump to conclusions.
AND . . . always hear both sides of the story before making a judgment.
