This is the flash diffuser I use, made out of a KFC plastic bucket lid, courtesy of Rundstedt B. Rovillos who introduced me to reverse lens macro photography.
My dad purchased this for me, since I don't have a flash and have to use the onboard one when it's too dark and I'm taking pictures of kids. (They don't like to sit still.) Before he got this for me I was using a piece of wax paper over the flash. Believe it or not, this works better.
75% crop of a fruit fly taken at 3:1 (ie 1/4 of the image) taken without my normal coke-can diffuser. See www.flickr.com/photos/lordv/2869278357/ for same shot with diffuser.
Shots taken at 1:1 with my 5Dmk2/MPE-65/430 Ex flash setup.
Top no diffuser
middle my standard coke can diffuser with 1 layer of LCD diffuser + 1 layer kitchen towel. This gives 2 stops light loss compared to no diffuser.
Bottom as the middle but with a layer of LCD dispersion film directly on the flash head. This film gives a 0.2 stops light loss but does give slight but noticeable reduction in contrast. The film when used the right way round has the interesting property of splitting a single light beam into two separate beams.
I obtained both the LCD diffuser and dispersion films from an old portable PC LCD screen I took apart.
The sun was behind the buildings and passed through the greater part of orange tree before hitting this orange and flower on the branch. Naples, Italy
I've been cutting up plastic milk containers to make flash diffusers - the Gary Fong looks great but seems expensive for a bit of plastic. I wanted to throw some diffused light forward and also get plenty of widely diffused light from the ceiling as well. I marked up a 3 litre and 2 litre bottle as shown in the picture, then cut round the line to make a kind of clamshell shape, with a tail that will slip through a couple of rubber bands on the flash head.
The picture shows the fixing.
I rotate the upright flash head through 90 degrees, so that when the camera is used vertical, the head can just be folded up to the new position.

This photo is diffuse because we know that there is light in this picture but we dont know where it is coming from.
You put a candle in the bottom and a few drops of sented oil in the top. I bought it at Whole Foods.
Was experimenting with this nice water bottle that I picked up from Daiso. Fitted over the SB600 it appears to make a nice bare bulb simulator.
