14 July 2010 by kristarella

Why DIY? In my search for flash diffuser ideas I saw this comment: I don’t get it. People spend thousands of dollars on their camera gear and then skip a few bucks on buying a decent flash diffuser and make one out of domestic waste instead? Brilliant. I agree! Although back in the day I […]
