270EX II (wireless) on FMMB (Front Mounted Macro Bracket, which allows the speedlight unit to always stay in front even as you zoom and the lens extends out.
You can find some info on FMMB here and here. There are other options as well besides FMMB as mentioned here.
The same setup from a different angle.
Side view, with a big concave diffuser attached.
This is a great example of how one can adapt the concave diffuser idea originally designed for the smaller working distance of the MP-E65 for a longer lens like the SP90, or 100mm or 105mm. I personally prefer lightweight yet flexible setup like this rather than big speedlight off hot shoe, on equally heavy macro flash bracket, or big speedlight on hot shoe with snoot diffuser.
It is not very clear from the image above what the diffuser is like. It is an adaptation of the smaller concave diffuser I am using, only bigger!
Sample images: Canon 7D, Tamron SP90, 270EX II, full flash, concave diffuser.
Nice, soft light thanks for the concave diffuser.
No diffuser. See the harsh light, spectral highlight and hard/harsh shadow.
