argh!
i have to miss the sgny meet and greet next week due to a paying photo gig at WizardWorld chicago!
grrrr....i'm gonna make costumed fanboys dance for making me miss this.
more later....just found out that a part needed to finish my bike for tomorrow's pickup didn't make it to the shop. They thought my exhaust was there in the last shipment of parts...

Hey man! I was starting to get worried that we'd lost you to something more interesting...
In terms of the colored Omnibounces - I would say "none of the above". What I would do is use the normal white one, and use color correction gels somehow adhered to the face of the Flash head (so it's colored before it hits the diffusor) - this is the ultimate in flexibility since you could use everything from the colored gels you see at venues (so you could literally color match to their lights) or use color temp filters that you'd use in a studio setting. I think the colored Omnibounces would ultimately be just as frustrated.
But I'm really talking out of my ass on this one - it's all theoretical at this point. I've been pretty broke lately, so I haven't shot anything for a while.
Sorry to hear about SGNY, I don't need to tell you about Southern Hospitality.

Which Flash are you using? One of the other things you could try if you have a flip-down diffusor (my Sigma has one) is to simply ditch the Omnibounce and just put the gel between the "lens" of the Flash and the flip-down diffusor. I'm still wrastlin' with the Sigma to get it to work with the omnibounce (again, my impatience ruins every attempt) so I've been using the flip-down diffusor instead.
Theoretically if you're using E-TTL, throwing the gel in there shouldn't make much of a difference, but... this whole thing confounds me right now so your experience is definitely valued...

god must be an iron...the world is full of irony.
North America Warhorse called me looking for the key today.
"hmmm...it should be with the bike."
"nope"
i make a phone call...
the towing place claims, "you never gave us the key"...even after i described the guy i handed the key...what he looked like, what he was wearing, what he was doing, what time it...

I hate dealing with crackheads like that. You're like, um I think I remember doing all this.... I was only there and stuff. And they're like no, no you're lying. Whatever.
Sweet pictures. That's the pinkest mermaid I have ever seen.

Heya! Just thought I'd see what you've been up to lately. Well, my plans for getting the DReb have been temporarily postponed.... my litttle dog needs some surgery and whatnot, so my camera fund got cleaned out. Damn! I was so close too! It's rather depressing, seeing as I have to pretty much start from scratch with the savings again. Oh well, it's just stuff. My baby needs to get better more than I need the camera.
Anyhoo, just thought I'd say hi. Hope things are well! Talk to ya later.

I am from Western Canada. Alberta, actually.
I can't seem to view that page you linked. I think it has something to do with the firewall on this computer. My bf will get all hippity bippity if I shut it off, so is there another way for me to see em?
i'm intrigued now!!!!

I just realized what your avatar photo is, you yaking a picture of yourself in your cycle mirror...
I thought it was that picture that went around a few years ago of an Apache helicopter in a rear view. Guess I should look more carefully next time
