New Lighting System for Fuji Macro

My ringflash has ceased to operate so I have been trying alternatives for throwing a bit of light into my Fuji macro shots. Here a selection with a small TTL hot shoe flash that seems to give the right amount of light to work at the F22 aperture that these small beasties need. Bumblebees are almost impossible to photograph well being round and covered in very reflective hairs but this is certainly about as good as I have previously achieved. On white flowers, the flash does an excellent job in filling in shadows. Being TTL even did good job lighting a more distant lizard.
