Another one that I've seen in a magazine is to use a two litre Ice-cream tub,
lined with aluminium foil, on it's side with a hole cut in to put the end of the
flash in (works best with bounce head guns) by adding a translucent lid you have
a chep but effectinve diffuser.

 I may get round to trying it one day...I'll let you know if it works!

On the subject of using the Stofen Diffuser which Joel inquired and Brian
responded:

Another alternative which I have used with a Vivitar 283/285 and should work
with a
T-32 but I haven't given it a try is: use a 1/2 gal or gal. translucent milk
jug--cut slits in the top to allow the flash to fit just inside, and tape with
duct
tape or reinforced packaging tape to the flash.  This provides a very large
diffused light source similar to an open bulb (no reflector), very round
lighting,
and it could vary depending on the tilt of the flash.  Cheap and readily
available.

Have fun, Mike
