Seeing and controlling light is the stock in trade of all photographers. And having the tools at hand to do so can mean the difference between a successful photograph and one that misses the mark.
Nowhere is this more important than when shooting with available light. Many times the perfect camera angle may work in opposition to the direction of the available light. I have found that by simply redirecting the light with a small Plexiglass mirror the shot cannot only be saved but dramatic evocative results can be achieved.
So remember to include a Plexiglass mirror in your kit when heading out for that available light portrait. It just might save the day and create wonderful possibilities.
