I just bought a cool 22" Beauty Dish and now im looking to mate it up with a Sunpak 120J flash that I have...

I was just curious to see if any of you guys are using a similar setup with a hot shoe flash...

any DIY Beauty Dish owners out there?

ok..i spent a few hours on friday getting my beauty dish to mate up with my 120j.

all in all i think it came out pretty cool... im gonna get some pics of it to share online here as well much like i did with my 120j/softbox setup.

sometimes i think i have more fun tinkering that i actually do shooting. hehee.
