The pink hopper is fantastic. Also, the colors in the first 3...man I wish we had some of those around here. Would you mind sharing your flash setup? Your diffusion is excellent!

thanks! I'm using a mt24exii with stofen diffusers diffused with foam, and a cup diffuser over the lens. I shoot the MT in manual mode in 1/4th the power when around 1-2 and 1-3 mag on the MPE, and - 1 stop for FC
