The Glow Backlight Reflector in Silver produces an oblong pool of light that can be used to create a natural gradual vignette on a background or other areas where creative light painting gives interest. The elliptical 8.5 /22cm x 12.5/32cm conical shape throws a beautiful shaft of light that is distinct and dramatic. Two edge spring clips holds the included diffusion sheet and color gels, available separately, can be added for even more effects. The extreme extended shape projects light rather that spreads the light, creating a more directed and even light with a distinct fall-off. The silver interior bowl design concentrates the flash into a very tight and even shaft of light, creating separation of subject to background. By placing the reflector close to the surface to be lighted, textures and oblique shadows become longer and dramatic. The Glow Background Reflector for Bowens Mount ideal for theatrical portraits, creative expression, location lighting where you want to be in command of the scene, and is essential for studio photography
