  That's close!!
  What is this diffused ring-flash that you speak of?
  I have given up trying to create that 'L' bracket and head combo to get close the subject. Can't find it here.
  Only reason I didn't want ring flash is that I couldn't build a diffuser for it.
  If diffuse ring flash exists with E-TTL, then that would be ideal for me!

  Just foam stuff stuck over where the flashes tubes are (2) and black tape (1).
  
  
  
  
  My flash is not TTL though.

  Well, he/she is close to being one of the ugliest things on earth, but this is a great shot. Even I, as an insect-phobic, can appreciate it! :whew
