[QUOTE="Ironwood, post: 610350, member: 10447"] I am not at my home computer so I cant post photos into this thread, but I posted some pics of my homemade snoot here , see post #27 - [url]https://nikonites.com/macro/31779-macro-using-cpl-filter-3.html[/url] But this is what I normally use, because its quick and easy, its crude and a lot of people look at it and dismiss it as "that wont work very good", but I find it works pretty good. If I had time I would build something better, but my life is too busy, and when I have a few minutes to spare I just want to grab the camera and go. Photos on post #14 - [url]https://nikonites.com/macro/37390-best-lighting-option-macro-2.html[/url] My next attempt will be a small low-profile flash that doesnt sit much higher than the built-in flash, and a snoot and diffuser set-up like Mark has detailed in his blog. The main issue with starting fresh again, is getting a pleasing looking reflection in the eyes. [/QUOTE]
