Using a cheap coffee filter to make a flash diffuser.
With all the DIY projects, I came upon this idea. Its probably been done before.
Notice the cool bling (cheap plastic bead bracelet) used to hold the coffee filter in place.
The shot is not white balanced but I just liked the idea of a coffee filter flash diffuser and wanted to post right away.

This picture is a Diffuse lighting example because you cannot, for the most part, tell where the light source is. the light hits in in many directions.

I wanted a diffuser for my flash, and I was feeling crafty. So, I built one. It's made of cardboard, nice white paper, gaffers tape, duct tape and glue, and it took me about 3 hours to design and build.
I taped together the inside seams with crappy duc(t/k) tape. Interestingly, professional duct installers don't use this stuff, they use sticky metal tape. Anyway, it's not totally terrible, and it's fairly flexible, and it's light colored. Taping together the inside seams, you want to butt all the pieces tight together.

Los Angeles, 2007
After shooting so many recent photos @ 55mm, I went wide today while shooting downtown. And then changed this one up a bit with the PS diffuse glow.
My old Yashica flash at full blast, diffused by a few layers of white paper. On camera strobe @1/64 for fill.
Here the diffuser is attached using the extra-sturdy setup. I normally just have one rubber band on it and catch just the back flap. It is quick to mount and dismount like that. I just shot a 3-hour indoor wedding reception last week with just one flap hooked with the flash mounted on a CB Junior flash bracket being flipped up and down and it didn't budge. You can see this setup in the next picture.
Using the double band method in the picture above, the inside band creates a lot of friction, and the outside band is wrapped around both the front and the back flaps. I would normally have the two bands directly overlapping each other, I put them like this so you could see the setup. I suppose you could even cut off the side flaps since I never use them.
Some pictures to try my prototype diffuser fins out.

This is was probably the hardest HM for me. I thought I understood what/how to use light, but once I got out in the there taking photos. I realized I didn't fully understand. It did not help that the weather was bad all week. I even tried to stay up all night just to get some pictures in "magic hour" but even at 7am there where so many clouds. I did the best I could with what I had to work with. I hope they are ok.
This was the easiest light source to do since it was cloudy all week long. This light is diffuse light. I used the cloudy WB for this photo. I took this photo in AWB, cloudy, sunny and shade. I thought the cloudy preset was the best looking one with AWB and sunny preset a very close second. The shade preset made the photo look a bit yellow.
