Correct... I believed I played with the curves to increase the fall-off from the centre.

Looking good, people. I was on some random forum earlier looking at 1 BD key light and the portraits were so horrible. I HAD to make this thread to revive hopes in photography smile. Awesome work people.

I want a grid but they don't make them for my beauty dish. If anyone has an idea of what my other options are to create a grid, let me know wink
