Still does not show. Maybe my server is blocking it. I had that trouble with a Pentaxian posting from Mongolia, Somewhere all his images were blocked from my monitor, but others could seem them just fine.

Hi Thagomizer,

I really like the last one, the patterns and colours are quite mesmerising.

These are nice and make me think that I should get a flash as well. I've always used natural light for now and I do find that limiting at times. Do you have a diffuser or something similar to get nice even lighting?

Here's a flower photographed a few summers ago. I have some autumny stuff that I'll sift through in a few days.

There is a diffuser built in to the flash, you can alter vary the strength of the each half of the flash. I can't find the thread now but another user designed and 3D printed a diffuser that looks like it does a better job of diffusing the light and giving a natural look.
