Light is looking great denis, agree it needs a bit more tweaking, are you using just the new diffusers? shooting flash in manual? I need to get me a set of those. Great shots btw

thanks andres.
shooting in manual mode at about 1/4 power for most stuff.way too powerful out of the box.i left my stofens on the heads,and added 1 layer of vellum paper for these shots.
as you can see they require more,so will keep adding vellum,and hopefully get the light right.it,s a trade off.these are bulky and tough to get in tight places,but no overhang like the cup diffuser which scares a lot of bugs off,as soon as you cast a shadow over them,but diffuses the light better,at least I think so.

Lovely shots Denis. Very nice detail
