Super shot. Will scare the ladies

What is you diy diffuser made from?
I'm using DIY Flash diffuser - using Styrofoam (used for wrapping goods). Put it in front of the ring flash ( on top of the lens). The ring flash is not snap at its place. Hanging on top of the lens using ruler (made of wood - more stable).... It is still in BETA stage though..hehehe

Good and sharp, only criticism being the harsh light on the end of the bud.
How did you go about your home made diffuser?
Thanks. For DIY flash diffuser, I used a double layer of Styrofoam (people used it for wrapping goods - white colour) in front of my ring flash. The ring flash is not attach to the lens. It is hanging above the lens. Must DIY a special bracket for this setup . It is still under beta version...hehehe

This is my first photo posting here. This is a photo of stink bug and commonly found in Malaysia (many variety can be found). Taken by handheld, using PENTAX K-5, SMC PENTAX D FA MACRO 100MM F2.8 WR, AF160FC AUTO MACRO RING FLASH and DIY Flash Diffuser.

Black background appear because it is a full flash technique. Taken at 1/180s, ISO 100 and f/16.

C & C welcome!
