The sun was out and it was warm. I chased this guy around for a while.
Out on a limb to get his picture taken

Very nice! However (this is just me, so don't take offense!), the ring-light reflection in the eyes is freaking me out!

Yeah, it drives me crazy too. I might play and learn to use another flash over the winter.

Perhaps I'm the oddball, correction I am but for different reasons. Personally the ring catch lights bother me no less than rectangular reflections. Neither really belong there but it's the compromise made when using flash. I really like ring catch-lights when the reflections are centered in jumpers eyes.
CC before you rig up another flash take a look at this cheapo modification for ring diffusion. I may experiment with it but the whole point of using a ring on my end is to limit the flash footprint on my rig.

Scroll down to the Pentax Rig with concave diffused ring light. I've been thinking that the independent flash control of the MR-14 might work very well in a similar setup.
