Well I am testing some flash bouncers and wanted to see what you guys though. This is one I borrowed from a friend, but I plan to order a couple tomorrow, what do you think:

Striking.

I think the light is very nice and even while still maintaining the natural highlights of the frog. Exceptional . . . I wish I could get lighting results consistently that good!

Thanks guys, I hope to have a couple more options soon. The one I used for this test is just too big to get pics in the smaller tanks.

WOAH

Thanks I order 2 different types of bouncers today along with more tank supplies.... :-)

holy sh-wow. Just when I think the pics can't get any better.....

What exactly is a flash bouncer (the concept is probably implied in the name) and how does it work?

Great shot Kyle!! I do agree that flash bouncers are the way to go when taking pics of frogs. The direct light coming from the flash just over exposes them and creates too much glare. The subtle lighting that was cast on that terribilis is amazing! Great work!
