    Well dang, I find the home made ring flash very interesting. I wish he was a little more detailed tho, I don't quite follow all the steps.

    I still haven't gotten around to picking up a suitable plunger for a bellows but when I do I think I'll use a different lens. :):

    Cool idea. He's using the styrofoam to bounce the light into the ring. Clever
    idea and you could use your existing flash w/o much effort.
