DIY Softcone
Over Thanksgiving I wanted to put together a DIY softbox. But before I could get the materials together, my mother suggested using Buster's protective cone from the vet. Turns out it worked perfectly!
Update: I think I may have left out some context here. As many of you know, I've been getting more and more into photography of late. As part of learning about photography, I've been reading a number of photography related blogs. The best of them, by a long shot, is David Hobby's Strobist Blog, which teaches lighting fundamentals as well as advanced techniques, using light-weight, inexpensive equipment, with a heavy focus on DIY solutions. His blog, along with the related Strobist Flickr Group, inspired me to try and make a softbox (which makes the flash bigger, resulting in softer and generally more flattering light).
