Gary Fong Lightsphere II results

I just pick one of these up, to go with my 580ex II. Just posting the some results I got. No PP done to any of the pics. Came off the camera as is, just resized, and saved as jpegs. The first pic of each set is without the lightsphere, and bouncing off the the celing. The second pic of each set is with the lightsphere, and flash in the same position.

I realize that the pics are underexposed, but I didn't want to use any PP, so I can show the differences with and without the diffuser, and plus I was too lazy to take the pictures again. I haven't had a chance to use it on an actual person yet, but I'm happy with the results of the lightsphere.

I have a GF cloud as well. I find it to be good and not so good depending on where/what I'm doing. I find that it falls off the flash a LOT. Anyone else have this issue?
