Sometimes a lens hood is needed, but unless they are integrated to the lens, they are big and not easy to transport.
I used a hot cup sleeve as lens hood, not a brilliant idea but good enough to save the day.
Another reason to use this disposable lens hood is that he lens has 49mm and today it is not so common to find hoods in this size.
See my other photos for further details.
