You know you could possibly make a very simple flash diffuser by placing a piece of frosted scotch tape across the flash lens and trying different EV's on different highly reflective subjects until you come across the best setting, however using a diffuser will cut down on your flash distance but then again your shooting macro. I was using flash rarely so I didn't think much about that. Thanks a lot for suggestion Ken!Ken Ramos wrote:...

Night fun could be very intersting. 
This is another great mantis shot you have here, a little hot in spots but they seem to highlight your subject against that marvelous background, very nice work and thanks!
