Ya definitely got a point. It is fussy and take s a couple minutes
even to turn the camera with an L-bracket on the miniclamp
to get the other orientation due to the wires. The angled lighting
just is sooo nice in bringing out the wing texture as commented upon by
Dean in the past. The fill softens the shadows. I probably miss a
bunch of shots due to the complexity, but just want a chance at a super
nice image. Tried just the T32 in 15 deg down mode with the WA
diffuser the other day--fast easy and effective. Seems to be an off
butterfly year, though. I have the CH plexiglass thing cut
out--didn't get a chance to finish it.

This all seems so gol-darn complicated. Sure it's not time to try the
C.H. solution?
