I just did some test shots with my new Lightsphere II Clouded... I'm very impressed with the quality of the lighting it provides.

That and my doggies are just too cute not to show :-)







Edit to add one more

Which do you like better, the clouded or clear?

I don't own a clear Lightsphere to make a judgement, but the clouded version is intended to soften the light more for closeup and portraiture work, which is the reason "I had to have it".

It produces a better quality than either my Lumaquest Pocket Bounce or my Lumaquest Mini Softbox and better than bouncing the flash off the cieling or wall.

I'm going to play around with the lightsphere and some reflectors later to see what kind of creative lighting I can produce.

for clarification, did you have it pointed up? w/ or w/o the dome?

thanks...

I had it pointed up with the dome off. My ceilings aren't high, but the dogs were pretty low, so I figuired I'd need the extra light.

Those are great examples. I'm begining to think I need to get that. So all I have to do now is steal mk's package before it reaches Saint Paul. :P
