    I did a full length shot in costume of a ballerina holding the umbrella by the stem{silver parabolic)fun shot! She was strong and could balance it! Thanks for your ongoing creativity! I soooo love your work.

    Always fantastic creativity, Gavin!!! I'm just learning and experimenting with a 7' umbrella. My first stumbling block is the glare from eyeglasses, which is a real problem. Do you have any suggestions for stopping glare in the glasses?

    The other reasons you want to be careful using the protective caps is they can also limit airflow through the light if it has cooling fins (and even a fan). For a few shots this may be fine, but you'll want to ensure the flash stays relatively cool (so let it cool down a bit before doing more). You may also trigger the "overheating" alarms or cause the flash to shut down faster than if it wasn't covered (obviously).
