Maybe someday if I really want to step my game up, I’ll get one of those. I’ve been meaning to share the bulbs I’ve been using in my lights: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/5/e/45e6b57cc24a33d68203e91be4b61e5f92bc3300.jpeg) ---

I’ll post some more yo-yo pics later. I brought my camera out of the house for the first time 2 days ago. I took it with me for lunch. With the waitress’s permission, I used a napkin to set the white balance and took some food shots: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/d/9/fd9a5fa933cb333de277fd369bf648e7052a5f1d.jpeg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/e/9/4e98c722e1431546520a7345471d74f6adf2d4ba.jpeg) ---

Meh, he’s 3 and a half! :wink: I’ve seen them as plant watering balls and cigar humidor gel (release’s moisture at a constant rate so it maintains 70% or so it said) and even sealed in bandana’s to wet and help keep you cool while wearing it! Crazy uses. These are poisonous is the only downside for young ones because they’re the perfect setup for a kid to want to try.

Checkout people look at adults funny sometimes when they’re holding such items with a big smile talking about taking yoyo pictures with them! Nice kicks and yoyo layout pic! I bet that was fun! Funny how once you start photographing in a light box (or otherwise), when you see others shots, you see all the ‘other’ stuff too. The setup, the questions, the answers, the moving of the lights, the tilt, the shifts, the angles… it’s all there in one shot! ;D ---

Yea, they make them for Xploders guns because they disintegrate on impact, don’t hurt if you get hit, and are biodegradable, so you can use them outside without the cleanup. ---
