Flash

A honeycomb grid on a flash will centre the light quite dramatically and generate a spotlight. I was too cheap to buy one so I decided to build it myself. I had been keen on the idea for some time, so I have been on the lookout for materials to build it from. The name pretty much describes what it is, but a honeycomb grid, is a grid of tubes or cells. The closest I came to a good material was radiator grills from some cars that has a bee cell grid. But in the end I decided to build this DIY project from scratch and build the grid from straws.

Efter et par dages desperat trang til, at indkøbe mere foto-lys af den ene eller den anden art, er det i dag lykkedes mig at få trangen under kontrol. Lysterne er gået i retning af alt lige fra et full blown studie flash setup og til brugte flashe. Og ikke mindst ekstra udstyr til belysning. Paraplyer, softboxe, remote triggeres a la RadioPopper eller PocketWizard. Fornuften indfandt sig i dag og jeg indså, at jeg allerede er den glade ejer af en ekstra flash samt en optisk trigger som fint kan dække behovet til de billeder jeg gerne ville tage. Så her til aften var der dømt fri leg med flash.
