I'm intrigued. Why do you want to go flashless? because you want to be too far away from your subject?

No not really, in fact I had my new smart flash in the bag, flash photography has a time and place, but gives predictable results which can look rather flat and stark, not to mention how intrusive it can be.
I do prefer the judgement call of setting the camera for my interpretation, as said can be a bit more hit and miss, but you can also achieve much better pictures.

No worries hun, the camera wasn't setup for any easy shots, next time I'll let you have a go with the big flash, that makes it much easier to get good results.
Cheers Mark.

I'm with mark on the flashless pics front. I find the flash when taking pics of peeps makes them look flat and bland and mutes out or exagerates their features. I much prefer taking pics without flash or at the very least covering most of the flash with my finger, a technique which is very hit and miss tho tbh.
I'll be there next week loonypot ![]()

I was greeted by this when I got home.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/8437488.stm It's not my house, but it is just a few yards down the road from us. It was amazing just how many people and how much equipment was involved. |

I'm sure all the water pumped all over the road which then froze made riding up there a little tricky. I got the bike out of the garage yesterday, then realised just how slippery my road was so put it away again and took the car. I know I am a complete wimp, but it would be just my luck to slip over in my ungritted cul-de-sac and break a leg just before Thailand.
