After my living room Mac mini setup was voted “Rig of the Day” by the editors over at The Unofficial Apple Weblog, I decided to focus some attention on my home office, as well. The pictures I’ve posted have been run on various web sites, and the comments that pour in are always very positive.

In browsing some recent setup pictures, I noticed several people using various backlighting techniques to enhance the ambiance and “frame” their equipment in light. Drawing inspiration from these images, I crafted my own version, using some cheap lighting acquired from Target of all places.

The end result, along with my new paper lamps, is shown above. What do you think?
