[QUOTE="Iman60, post: 796138, member: 7998"] Ok RL... I have pondered the bejeeze out of this. What I can tell you is that outdoors... the BEST natural light is a cloudy day. Stepping outside the golden hours as we call it is not good ... in my experience, if you are relying on natural light. You can combat the stronger sunlight by using flash... fill flash... even a reflector if you dont have flash. The thing is I dont photograph people outdoors much at all. When I do, I tend to use a flash, tho I can't say I have have been very sucessful with flash. I tend to be very creative like shooting into teh early morning sun or using open shade. It is a matter of studying the light on your subject's face... moving them... or yourself and paying attention to just how much light, or lack of it, is illuminating your subject. I hope this is of help to you? [/QUOTE]
