Weekly Photo Tips Presents the DIY Beauty Dish

http://www.weeklyphototips.com/

This week Scott shows us how to make a very low cost modifier for our dedicated flash units. The beauty dish, so called because of the flattering soft rap around light that it creates on a subject, is a great addition to your light kit. This low cost DIY option allows you to build one quickly using off the shelf components many of which can be found at your local Home Depot or Lowes store.

As always please stop by our web site http://www.weeklyphototips.com/ for links to the detailed plans for this project. Scott will also have some example photos demonstrating the difference between using your flash directly and using the beauty dish.

Thanks for stopping by and next time bring a friend or two. There's always room for more.
