Backlighting Film Cells

[maverick177uk]

I've got a couple of those small framed film cells pictures you can buy, and was wondering the best show them off, if they are just hung on the wall you cant really see the film cells so I was wondering if anyone has got any suggestions on how to backlight them either hung up on a wall or table top mounting.

You could try to make a sort of "light box" frame.

Get some opaque white perspex cut to the size of the frame backing. Then install a small weak light in the wall behind where you`re going to hang it/them.

you could use LEDs as they don't emit much heat and are very economical to run too
