Trying a different way of using an external camera mounted flash gun for macro shots. Just a sheet of A4 paper folded in half and then two slots about 3cms long cut on both the long sides about halfway down and the paper is bent and stuck at these slot pints to make a slight curve. The paper is mounted on the flash gun as shown using a length of a sticky tape stuck to itself as a strap which is held round the flash and stuck to the paper on both sides. The flash is then used with the head swung away from the lens at an angle of about 30' to 45'
Main reason for trying this was to get more side lighting and hopefully reduce reflections.

In the constellation of Monoceros, just east of Orion, lies this huge nebulous duo with the famous Rosette Nebula at right and the Cone Nebula at left. The Rosette is easily recognized as a large flower to the left with bright central stars. In . The nebula on the left halves of the mosaic contains 'The Christmas Tree' star cluster in the center. The Cone Nebula lays at distance of ~2500 light years and the Rosette about a distance at 5200 light years. - See more at: www.astrobin.com/55961/#sthash.ECOcOHhn.dpuf
One of my first experiments with my home made macro diffuser. I have to say, I'm quite pleasantly surprised with the results such a simple and cheap piece of equipment provides.
I think it was a good idea to keep this thistle in my backyard.
A studio shot of a jumping spider I abducted over the weekend. It will be released in the garden tomorrow...
A morning with a massive cloud on the field.
And inside that massive diffuser something beautiful was hiding.
A Mantis with an amazing camouflage ability.

After John’s and Nicolas’ previous posts this is not a particularly original presentation for sure. But I’ve placed this specimen on a match just in order to give a sense of scale.
