ive been looking at peoples ways of attatching gels to speedlights.

yes its made of velcro (soft side) doubled back on each other with bend paper clips trapped inside, with the rough bit on the end to tighten it up.
i had to mess about a bit to get the gels to fit right. im using lee gels by the way
