PHOTOJOJO'S FLASH BENDER - A GREAT IDEA BUT SPENDY...SO,

http://photojojo.com/store/awesomeness/flash-bender/

I love the squishy idea. Looks really pro. It is. But for photographers on a budget (like me), I'm looking at this and thinking a little velcro, glue gun or tape, and a dissected milk container?

I'm interested in your suggestions...

You know what works for a flash diffuser for me? On the Sony W50 and all small, older point and shoots? A lollipop wrapper!

For my Sony F828 with the built-in flash, I use a sheet of toilet paper.

OK, now you can laugh.

Still, I'd love to see your comments on how to do it yourself! Thanks.

DIY PHOTOGRAPHY - USE A TOILET FLANGE FOR ELEVATED VIDEO WHILE KAYAKING

http://www.diyphotography.net/use-a-toilet-flange-for-elevated-video-while-kayaking

Two of my favorite pastimes - kayaking and photography. Note that in the first video, the kayak is a Swifty - ultra stable and mine is yellow!

Looks like something I should look into. Maybe you should, too. It's too high to get your camera splashed.

Photo buffs, this is for you!

And this we can thank Photojojo for -

I forgot to post it. Ring lights. Oh boy, do I want a ring light for macro shots. Go to eBay and get sticker shock. They are too expensive for me.

So here is an ingenious idea for a ring light made from Velcro and small LEDs that can be glued or made to stick with magnets.

You're gonna love this.
