My reflector went airborne

Wind caught my 5‑in‑1 at 4:30pm and it sailed past my subject like a UFO; I kept her laughing with eye contact while swinging the key to camera-left so the runaway silver side became an accidental rim light as my assistant gave chase. What’s your best “light had other plans” moment?

Loved the 4:30 ‘accidental rim’ save — A‑clamp the 5‑in‑1 to a stand, add a sandbag, or go translucent scrim.
