Suggestion: Instead of TURNING OFF your right side ringflash, try placing heavy diffusion paper, or white cloth over right side, which will provide biased lighting, and allow better shadow detail.

I like this Beetle, good focus on the mandibles.
Do you have leash on him to keep him around for photo shoots?

Hah.. I had to go looking for him for the retake session. He had decided that the place I found him in was way to bright from time to time. Thanks for the compliment.
