photo question?

[Blindside]

What is the secret to top down pics, everytime I try I get either to much light from the halide or not enough?

best one I have taken after about 30 attemps.

If you have a problem with glare from a light, you can shoot through a look down box. A little box made from black acrylic on the sides (to block the light from coming in), and clear acrylic on the bottom. There are tons of them being made right now.
