It's a background that simply fits over the top of the lastolite hilite.. Bottle top is simply the name they gave it??

why you need to fit a background to hilite? wonder what it looked like?

When the Hilite reversed, is black, so if you fit a background to it, it becomes a low key backdrop.

Cracking bit of kit mind.

I would have thought if you hem the edge and put a drawstring in it would work really well.

Or sticky velcro
