What light can I improvise in the room without an ugly flash?

If there is no useful window, a continuous light bounced off a pale wall is enough for the product, never the phone flash in the face. Improvising with the phone torch does not get there: it leaves a white spot in the sauce.

Find the palest wall near the table and move the lamp that falls on top. In the sierra a friend’s camera flash is used and the glass blows out white. When the room has no window, Cristina brings that side light; the frame with the flash spot is not delivered.
