Glowing Orb...

I was in a craft store looking for something and stumbled into the sale isle as usual. They had gazing balls on sale really cheap and after a quick look I realized that you can uncap the bottom and shoot a flash through them. So here is the result of the first test of a new prop - C&C welcome as I have never tried this before.

EXIF intact, Black backdrop
Flagged SB26's R&L M1/64 with the diffusers down
Flagged SB26 overhead
SB900 shot through a garden gazing ball from below M1/1 triggered with a Phottix Stratto. Gelled red for most. PP in CNX2 (no chopping here, just cleanup)

    THanks you both! I was at Hobby Lobby and they had the gazing balls for $6, so it was an easy sell - we had way more than $6 worth of fun with it.
