A satin white umbrella will give you a significantly softer light than a silver one. Skip Douglas

If that is the case then what are the specific types of shots that you might flip the umbrella and use the silver side, or for that matter, use a gold umbrella. I don't see recommendations for the. The same is true of things like the Lumiquest ProMax system. I never see anyone discussing or recommending the gold or silver inserts, just the white. Can you explain when and why I would want anything other than a white umbrella or softbox? I've heard that the silver will give more pronounced specular highlights. Don't ask me to define that, though Skip Douglas
