>>>>.lovely composition, like the set up & the positioning of the cup to capture the light on the handle...
. I`m learning new stuff every day "just discovered what a snoot was and how to make one out of a crisp tube" .

Mike...My first snoots were homemade out of different materials. I only treated myself to this one with grids recently. I since got a new flash-gun and now need a new adapter to make it fit that new flash-gun head, but the adapter is around $8 so it's not going to break the bank!

Great shot Laurie, I have learned something new by looking at your set up for the shot, I am still not sure what a snoot is but the results look good, Well Done

Jenny a snoot simply focuses the flash into a narrow beam of light like a spot-light. You can make one yourself...just google DIY snoot and there are all sorts of tutorials around the Internet.
