After reading Don's kind words I thought to explore what a diffuser actually does to light and attempt to demonstrate it. We all know if diffuses and softens but how.
The image below shows a cross of light originating from a Stofen diffuser and this is gathered and diffused once more by the AP diffuser held approx 30cm away. Sorry its not central!!
