STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHY - Honeycomb modifier


This photograph of a coloured bottle was taken using a Honeycomb modifier, or sometimes known as a diffuser, since it diffuses the light falling from your light source onto your subject. Here I used a Bowens Studio light at 45 degrees to my subject on quarter power, no flash, and a Nikon Speed light 900, with a honeycomb attachment. The honeycomb casts a gentle, rippling light which is soft and flattering. To avoid flash or ricochet on a reflective surface, you can raise your light source above your subject, a reflector may be used to fill in shadows if required.
