DIY Lightsphere

I've heard several times about the Gary Fong Lightsphere, a flash modifier meant to cast soft, pretty shadows. Some people swear by them. Gary Fong charges $50 for one, and has now developed several varieties.

Good news for college students: you can fake a Lightsphere for less than $1. I did this little tutorial to show how.

friday meet 4/16

You know the drill. Art barn, 12 PM (noon). Bring ideas. See you there!

Also describes the shutter mechanism and why that plays a role in the flash sync limit.
