Was leaving the house when I saw this critter taking a rest on a large leaf of my potted plant aka "铁树".
It didn't take me long to set up my camera and flash with my DIY diffuser and started snapping.
The results of my DIY diffuser was very satisfactory!
This could arguably be one of the better macro shoots I had taken (with the lighting that I am happy with).

This one was slightly out of focus as I was starting to warm up
Better focus in this shot
Another shot taken parallel to the focal plane of the insect's body
A failed top view shot with focusing off [ focus was on wings instead of eyes ]
A first satisfactory shot
This shot showed off the compound eye a little bit
as the compound eyes reflected the light from the flash
