[QUOTE="westmill, post: 56337, member: 9330"] I use a lot of flash in my work, as it gives me 100% total control over lighting. My studio was purpose built and has no windows anywhere. The bulbs I use are coiled 250watt daylight balanced, to light the studio. These have zero impact on the flash pictures, since the flash is well dominant. If the flash fails to fire, the screen is black ! You can have hours of fun with flash. Just experiment. Getting the flash off camera will allow you to choose light direction and how hard or soft etc. Change the colouring with filters etc. You can set it to fire minus two stops to fill in hash shadows falling on faces in bright sunlight. Its the best way of freezing movement, as flash duration can reach very high speeds. If the dog is mans best friend... then the flash is the photographers best friend :) [/QUOTE]
