#213 - Homemade Flash Diffuser

Inspired by this, I made my own quickie homemade flash diffuser (or flash sock) when we went out to eat Ethopian. I took a picture with my flash (above) and it was too bright.

Then I took one without my flash (above) and it lost some of the crispness and clear focus.

So I took a paper napkin and gently wrapped it around my flash. It was amazing. If you are ever in a pinch and need a flash diffuser, it's a quick fix for no cost. I'm totally going to do this again.

Which photo do you like best?
