whoty Goldmember  More info | Mar 04, 2013 22:22 | #1 Using gels is fun and let's you add a bit more creativity to your shots. I just recently started using gels and I love them. I try to incorporate them into shots whenever I can. It adds that much more to a shot,I think. So,post them up.

Can you tell us (as you go) what gel was used with each photo, so that we can learn a bit more on this (very interesting (to me)) subject? Great idea.

Its funny because its hard to know sometimes what exactly goes into an image. My wife had to hide the firemans hat from him because he refuses to wear it. Id get him to stand where I wanted, she would plop the hat on him, and I would get one shot before he had removed the hat and ran off. I took 4 shots total, this was the third one. Then he went into meltdown mode and that was that. Shane
