Just for fun, the results were not too bad actually!
Nikon D800 + Kenko 36mm Extension Tube + Tamron 90mm + Raynox DCR250
I wanted to experiment with making my own diffuser. In this example I set the white balance to tungsten (on my camera), then held a sheet of A4 white paper in front of the light source (hence the 1.5 second exposure time despite the bulb being inches from the subjects). This allowed me to get the 'sexy' highlight on the headphones which were previously over exposing and looked blown out. I used an F2.8 aperture to get some subtle Bokeh/DoF, a custom Photoshop action to give everything a nice blue/grey look and feel then a serious use of the healing brush to remove all the specs of dust. I was really impressed with the difference that made, even on the iPod's screen which includes the LCD's quite complicated texture.
The camera was tripod mounted and given a timed shutter response to make sure there was no 'camera shake'. Next year I'm definately buying a macro lens, I'm so looking forward to that.
There are only two rules in photography.
#1 Breaking the rule is rule.
#2 Never forget the rule 1

I have diffused the flash using a homemade softbox.

This time, with the upper part of the PET-bottles, covered with toilet paper ... For lighting used two Jansjö LED-lamps.
Home studio stack of 77 shots (1,6 s, F 5, ISO 160) and last shot 8 s, F 11, ISO 160 with MP-E 65 and Canon EOS 40D, stacked in Zerene Stacker.
Mine diffuser for canon macro flash MT-24EX represent combinacion of diffuser's made by @Dalantech (www.flickr.com/photos/dalantech/), @SteB1 (www.flickr.com/photos/9578475@N02/) and @OrionMystery (www.flickr.com/photos/orionmystery/).
I used JJC-FC-26U Flash Diffuser + Gary Fong Puffer (hot glued them together), vellum paper - bubble wrap "sandwich" and plastic holder (cut from the 0,5l Coca Cola bottle).
This video is about diffusing light for macro photography, photomacrography, micro photography.

This is a very simple, but very effective diffuser I have used for a most of the images taken with the 100mm macro lens you see on my Photostream this year. I was intending to write it up but haven't got round to it. These photos describe it.
Forest, captured during a foggy day. The sun rays were penetrating the roof of the forest creating this special moody atmosphere.
In the park on last weekend, I looked for a slit the sunlight passing through between leaves for a long time. Finally I found good ray.
たまにはこういうのを探すとすごく熱中できます。楽しかった。

Portrait of a friend in Tampa at sunset on top of the building where she works. She wanted to "do something" so I let her play the role of 'chatty girl with phone'. This was made at the end of a day learning about using one light to make interestingly lit portraits. I had to take several to get her look right - she's picky that way.
Also, got the adjacent building's 'uplight' coming around through her hair for a touch of kicker.
Hello everyone! I am a new club member and thought I would post one of my recent photos as a way of introduction. If you check out my Flickr page you will see that I shoot 99% in Black & White. This is a direct carryover from many years of shooting and processing small, medium and (occasionally) large format B&W film. I've only been shooting digital for about a year now and love it (what took me so long?). I do minimal post-production and try to limit adjustments to those things that could be easily done in a traditional darkroom, with the most notable exception being some noise reduction and perspective control.
This particular shot was taken at the Cleveland public library. I liked the frosted glass on the door so took a picture. Then someone walked by on the other side and thought that would make a great shot. Fortunately I only had to wait about 15 minutes for the person to walk by again.
Anyway, looking forward to meeting everyone in person!

a DIY Macro diffuser thats been a better idea than my other card one lol, its a thin white plastic bowl, i cut a hole in the bottom and the Raynox lens holds it tightly in place.
Cheap too.
Just got my Sigma 500 super dg flash back from repair (started behaving oddly after about 30000 shots) which meant I have two flashes ,two camera bodies,2 macro lenses but only one flash bracket. So decided to try and do a diffuser for a camera mounted flash gun with the aim of diffusing the light plus reducing the amount of power used in each flash (for quick cycle times). Did my normal plastic milk bottle, duct tape, aluminium foil, kitchen towel quick and dirty job. Much to my suprise seems to have achieved both objectives :)
This pic was taken using it www.flickr.com/photos/lordv/201692732/ This is a difficult subject because of the white petals and normally the nose cone on these will "blow" with non- diffused light.
