$10 lightbox + DSLR = Fun Times!

You can throw an image in the back of the box as a background, throw a stick in the foreground and nobody can tell you didn't take the picture in the middle of the jungle/forest/whatever...

My uncle does this for his moth photography, has a bunch of different blown up images for backgrounds, and boxes of different pieces of wood, moss, etc to put the bug on:

You'd never know those are shot in a box on his porch.

Ah right, did not factor in the lighting. I just used what I had lying around.

@shindig
The pic in the background is a very good idea.
