Has anyone seen those coloured gels which fit over your flashgun to colour the light produced? Well I fancied a go but am not keen on forking out silly money. I had an idea that I could buy some form of thin sheet plastic and cut it to size and tape it on. So I popped into a local craft shop (Shawes I think its called in Notts) and bought a blue, yellow and green sheet of thin acetate for 60p a go! I havent used it yet but when I get around to having a play I'll let you know how it goes. They also sell thicker acetate for about £1 that's semi-transparent and I wondered if this could work out to be a cheap diffuser? Maybe another time.
I did once read about someone who used the old cellophane wrappers from Quality Street on thier flashgun too. Shame I dont have any Quality Street
