It's time to break out the larger studio strobes, though the Wescott Silver PLM also work well with just about any hot shoe flash!

The Wescott PLM Parabolic Umbrella

I'm at the studio today with a new toy--the Westcott PLM Parabolic Umbrella! This awesome light modifier is huge! It spans a few feet and does take up precious studio space--however it's light shooting with a gigantic ring flash! 

It produces absolutely beautiful light, and I'm wondering how did I live with out the thing for so long! Ah! Yes, I remember--this is a huge light modifier--I've passed it up for smaller and more convenient umbrellas--which is a huge mistake--a great photographer shouldn't mind carrying some extra gear--in favor of creating even more wonderfully fantastic images.

I've been a little lazy and have been carrying just stuff that I can carry myself--and after firing this PLM in my studio--I'll be making a few second trips from my car or studio to the shooting location with the PLM :)
