use them off camera, to light up the background?have a look at gary edwards tutorial on the lencarta site on lighting glass & also there is a course for strobes /flashes on location, hope this helps

Just have a general play around with them - that's half the fun! I'm certainly no expert but learned a lot from playing around and having fun!

I've not had as much time as I'd like to mess around with the gels, but this thread has reminded me to have a go! A couple I did a while back when I first got the rosco gels!

I had a play with gels the other week to do these masks. Not sure if I like the shots, but they were fun to do!
