TENNIS BALLS, MILK JUGS, FOAM PIPE INSULATION AND MORE
Common, everyday items that don’t cost an arm and a leg can be used ingeniously in place of many more costly photographic accessories.
An ordinary item that is not usually associated with photography can sometimes be used to solve a problem or to take the place of gear you forgot to bring or just don’t have. Some of these items can mean the difference between a good and a great picture, and a few may even become a regular part of your equipment.
