Day 27 - Flashing

I finally managed to acquire the correct range of DIY crafty things (A4 neoprene sheet and sticky back Velcro) to make myself a snoot, so I tried it out with a few self-portrait comparisons.  All these use the same flash position but different modifiers.  I was really surprised at how effectively the improvised snoot narrows the beam.  It's ridiculous as a self-portrait, but does give me a guide to how I might use it more creatively.

  1. This is a great series of shots to show the different effects - can you send me a picture and instructions of how you created your snoot, please? I have pictures of Kate a Maggie to take next weekend and I need a snoot for some of the shots I have planned. Ta!
