DSLR Photography Forum

Heheh, I'm enjoying a new photography textbook I picked up recently... in the lighting section they talk about a gobo. Do you know what a gobo is?

Heheh, post your definition (bonus points for funny ones) and I'll reveal the answer in a tick. No googling now!

Simple!

A GOBO (pronounced Gob-oh), is what I project at people, (following a big spoonful of rice pudding), who I dislike.



Some think it's a lighting accessory,,,,,, FOOLS!!!!!

In fact, I have a picture!!!!

Gobo or Go Bo is the phrase used in the Duke's of Hazzard when Uncle Jesse ran out of beer.....

"Go Bo and fetch mi sum more beeerh!"

See.

Not at all what I voted for...

Hehe, thanks all for participating. A gobo is actually a "An opaque piece of material used to block unwanted light falling on a subject.", usually black in colour.

Now why can't they just call it a light blocker thingy?

Ihave some fish which are Bumble Bee Gobo's!
