ring light photo tip

[Guest guest]

Here is a ring light suggestion to improve results:

 

Ring lights are wonderful to providing soft light at close range without glare

or harsh

shadows BUT it is this very soft quality that makes them poor for revealing

textures and

contours. Try covering half of the unit with a white translucent material to

reduce it's out

put slightly(experiment for best results). Because you'll be at fixed distance

to tongue or

ear you should consistent results pretty quickly. Nikon or Calumet sells

differential

diffusers for ring lights but you can also get nice results with white drafting

tape. You can

also you opaque tape in a patch work.
