 This is my first entry with the ringlight. Don't fooled by the shutter speed, ISO 400 or 800 gets me much faster speeds, and 1/30 is enough for steady hands. I am not saying the ringlight is bright, but you really have to work with it, it does give excellent results.

Wanted to see more texture and a play of tones especially in the flower - maybe lighting from the side?? The gradient in the background is a nice touch
