For the 365 days group, day 77 and for those that find me too dark. Ha.
For the PSE group, Smart Fix and Diffuse Filter. Love the shadows of the hair on my forehead. That's part of the original shot.

Here's a homemade device for diffusing direct sunlight for macro flower shots.
It's a piece of plexiglass fastened with velcro to a windshield wonder device. Then there's some diffusing fabric fastened with rubber bands. Then there's a second piece of diffusing material (foggy plastic), which can also be attached. I got the material from B & H for less than $10 per sheet ... enough for two diffusing devices. Thanks to Joel for the great idea in regards the handle!
This setup requires that you have your camera on a tripod and that you have some sort of remote shutter release; that way you have a free hand to position the diffuser. Wish it wasn't so overcast today or I would test it out with a before-and-after photo. Maybe later in the week.
Although this looks like water fountains, it's actually just a boisterous Lake Michigan busting up against the crenelated sea wall.
In this configuration, I cut out a piece of vellum and placed it inside the enclosure between the red LED and the backside of the front face of the enclosure. I think the diffusing effect looks much cleaner. I just used a piece of masking tape to hold the vellum in place, which you can see as a slightly darker area just above the Adobe logo. I will use a light layer of glue along the inside corners to affix the vellum more permanently. The glue shouldn't show up.
The Lambency Flash Diffuser makes flash photos soft and evenly lit like bounce effect, without the need of specific ceiling or reflector.
A home made diffuser for the built in flash. This makes it so much easier to get shots with the macro extension tubes. I'm really enjoying playing with this set up.
Got one of those flash diffuser thingys so what better way to test it out than to fire it off in my face !
Here, I attempted to capture the details of the iron gate inside of this cathedral. The light is diffused as it passes through the cathedral windows and barely filters in enough to create a clear photo.
Another attempt at reprocessing an old photograph.
Would that someone had warned me about diffraction and taught me to expose to the right back when I shot this. Still, with some careful processing, I think I've managed to bring back most of the detail and tonalities.
