CSW! It is interesting you say you don't want to pursue MMA but you are talking about mixing your martial arts. :) Maybe you mean you don't want to fight in a cage for money?
Note that the gold reflector will shift the colour temperature of everything it hits, so if you're photographing a model wearing white, and that white has to look white in the final picture, you're just going to have to put things back the way they were in post anyway
This illustration shows how light enters a reflector telescope. Optical telescopes allow us to see further; they are able to collect and focus more light from distant objects than our eyes can alone. This is achieved by refracting or reflecting the light using lenses or mirrors.
