Glueing with strange glue

The first scarf joint was not very successful, I wanted to save on the expensive epoxy so I got some cheap construction glue for the strong back. I have now idea what it is, feels like glueing with snot (yellow an sticky). The joint is not pretty but feels strong enough.
For the second joint I decided to screw the plywood to the workbench to get a tighter join (you can see one of the screws in the picture), and a few buckets of water on top just in case.

Again sorry for the picture quality it is actually a lot brighter in reality than what it looks in the pictures. In addition to the 60W bulb in the ceiling I have three 150W spotlights. I will keep blaming my phone camera (if anyone has any good tips I will listen).

    The camera will expose for the bright lights. Instead of what you are doing, point the lights at the roof,reflected light will be better. Put the camera on a cheap tripod. If it has a self timer, use that. Even lighting is more important than brightness. A long exposure will deal with low light. But once the camera sees some very bright parts, you will only get a short exposure
