I like the idea of using an EL panel for picture illumination, and I have another use for it. I need to take pictures of glass for an upcoming project and this would be a great solution for lighting the piece. To get really nice pictures of glass you have to light them from underneath. You can purchase commercial light panels, but you might be able to make one for less.

EL Lighting has a lot of different uses. It's pretty crazy how many things Electroluminescent light can be used in. Personally, I think Metromark makes the best EL panels. You can check out their website at http://metromark.com/
