Quick Tip: A Plastic Cup Lightsphere
We've had our share of Lightsphere and Omnibounce DIYs, ranging from wax paper and yogurt cups through bubble wrap and barf bags.
I think this one by Flickr user Manu_MK is one of the simpler ideas. A plastic cap with two gaffer flaps gaffed to the strobe.
And with a Lightsphere to Tupperware comparison by Jim Harmer showing that they all provide similar light quality, is there a reason to using anything more costly.

Nice and cheap and instantly
Very nice, useful for an event at the last min if a light sphere is needed.

That's easy to do - great idea!
