Can you see it? LOL I guess you get a Sidekick if you already have a nice ballhead, or check out Jobu gimbals, B&H sells them. Sorry for the poor quality, cell phone pic  EDIT: oh yeah, it's a gitzo 3530LS (no center column) Wimberley head II and Wimberley F-9 flash bracket. Outstanding setup. Who made the flash attachment? It's a Fresnel lens, I'm guessing?

Are these things overall effective, or only in limited circumstances or ranges? Looks like a clever idea, anyways. they work great for long distances (just remember to not let the sun hit it or you WILL burn your flash, trust me, i know)
