"Tasty" shots Napabob! I'm trying to learn and improve my macro using a new flash (Canon MR-14EX) and understand that is what you use. Would you mind posting what camera and flash settings you used for these? Did you use both sides of the ring lite and at what power(s)? Top to bottom light or side to side light? I'd really appreciate any feedback/recommendations you could give me.

hey Susan, thanks for looking, actually I'm using the MT-24 twin flash with home made fanken difusers, my go-to settings are ISO 100, 1/200-sec at f/13-16, and mainly use the flash in manual.

Thanks NapaBob. I looked at your set-up pics and it looks really nice. Great results you are getting. Thanks again for letting me know. I'll still be watching for more of your stuff. :)
