Here Kitty, kitty. (Domesticated Cats/Kittens Only)

Braineack,
Dude! man, I am digging the catchlights on the portrait of Sonny...you mentioned that the new light modifier gives pretty cool catchlights on the eyes...I agreed with that, based on a phone-view of the shot...but wow! Seeing the catchlights big, on Flickr, on the iMac's large screen, the catchlights without the diffuser panel are incredibly cool and attention-getting, which has become a sort of "thing" these days in some genres of photography.

yeah, i wanted a nice collapsible softbox to travel with. this one can be used as a beauty dish or softbox or reflector. has two diffusion panels, and comes with a grid. Bonus: because it's designed for a grid, the front diffusion panel sits receded about 1.5".

This is how I set it up for the shot you saw:

since the panel doesn't reach the full diameter it gives that weird ring-light effect and the straps are what is giving it that multi-bulb look.


*cat for scale.
 
I think this catchlight appearance looks very cool...different from traditional modifiers. Neat!
