I've worked on "softening" the flash a bit by taping a couple of layers of
tissue paper over the flash. I suppose a grey filter could work, too, but
tissue is nice and cheap, plus it diffuses the flash a bit.
Natural daylight seems to be the perfect light, so long as you can avoid
shadows. Sadly, thought, most of fritter away daylight by wasting it at
work :-(
