I just picked up a 7' Wescott Parabolic umbrella, simply because it was too good of a deal not to snag. I'm thinking it'll come in real handy for large group shots but I'd like to see the results of others. Please share your best! Thanks in advance,

- Ryan

Thanks. I really like that big umbrella for a single light images. It's amazing how focused that big light is.

1. Did you shoot with or without the diffuser on the front of the umbrella?
2. Distance from model?
3. Excellent shot
