I got to put the new Foam Diffuser to good use today on a very small garden spider on my Lavender Bush.

The purple you see in the image is the Lavender heads.
Images are not cropped in any way.

Shots are hand held - Canon 20D / Canon 100mm Macro / Kenko Tube / Ext Flash / Foam Paper Diffuser / F20 / ISO 200 / Shutter 200

Enjoy.......... Skippy (Australia)

    Welllllllll I fixed that David.......I never said I could count rolleyes1.gif

    Yeah the Diffuser works great, but I soooooo need a flash bracket a DELTA would be perfect, I need that flash off the camera, but I dont have a bracket that lets me put it where I want it, one of those Flexible ones would be just what I need.

    Thanks for looking......... Skippy (Australia)
