I took this shot to stop the boredom of writing a 2500 word essay on Dante's Purgatorio from eating my soul.
I made the swirl-diffuser out of a cherios box, some white paper and gaffer tape - strapped to my sb-600. I shot this with a remote in one hand and the flash in the other - and a black towel as a backdrop.
pp - crop, spot editing (I have really bad skin today!), Black and white high contrast red filter, resize, sharpen, sfw.

Interesting concept but it works well. Nice subtle lighting that gives it good depth. Upgraded from a 5 (what was I thinking!!) to a 7 on second pass and after looking at it closer.
