 Its an old trick, hang a mirror from the ceiling and use to
reflect stuff back to a camera on the ground. You will have
to flop the negatives to get L and R right. I first surface
mirror is preferable but might be hard to find.
  You can use a smaller mirror if you put the camera up
high, the difference being that the camera will be pointing
up so you can get to the ground glass easily.
  Open the _top_ end of milk cartons, if you open the bottom
you will have a mess.
