Cat Ashton - Softbox
Canon 10d, Tamron SP 28-70mm f2.8
f16 @ 1/125th second
Vivitar 285 shot through home made softbox. Positioned directly above camera.
I decided today was a "play with toys" day, but then realised I didn't have many "light" toys to play with.
Always wanted a softbox. I've got one of those small, Sto-fen diffusers, and that's useful for wide shots, and yes I've got a brolly, but that spills light all over the place.
No, a softbox it had to be. So out comes the cartridge paper, some leftover mountboard, tissue paper and enough masking tape to cover a small building. The result is this, and I'm quite happy with it for a large lump of pulp paper. Saves a few quid as well.
