Flashed

Flashed
Saturday Self-Challenge: "Fill Flash"

It has been a very busy week for me, so I could not practice this technique as well as I wanted to. But I had a small bit of time to try it on my garden statue. This is what snapping the photo with 1/32 flash looks like. I snapped the image in the note using the same manual settings as this one but no flash.

Smiley Derleth, Jenny McIntyre, @ngélique ❤️, and 22 other people have particularly liked this photo

I actually prefer the no flash one !

It's funny that you should say that, because I found that I like the no flash one better, too, lol! I did not have much opportunity to practice this technique or to find the right subjects for it this week, so I wasn't as happy with the outcome. That being said, I did learn a whole lot about it, and plan to practice a lot more in the future! :-)

That's quite a difference. What a cute statue.

I hope you get a chance to play around with it some more. It can be a lot of fun. :)

Une préférence moi aussi pour la version sans flash qui est plus contrastée et offre plus de détails.

Merci beaucoup, Alain, je suis d'accord avec toi ! J'ai appris que toutes les images ne bénéficient pas de cette technique.

Valfal club has replied to Ulrich John club
Thank you so very much, Ulrich! Like I said to John above, I probably would have chosen a different subject to present for this challenge, but I didn't have time or the right conditions to experiment with it like I wanted to.

This for me is the negative example of the flash use: IMHO the PIP is excelent with the shadow play, in the main one the flash makes it flat!

Valfal club has replied to Xata club
I agree with you 100%, Isabel. You have only reaffirmed what I was thinking. Unfortunately I did not have enough time or the right conditions to practice this technique enough. I really learned a lot, though, and am anxious to try it again! :-)

I prefer the no-flash photo. Val. The flash flattens out the image and the shadows and contrast are diminished..
6 years ago.
Valfal club has replied to Amelia club
I agree with your assessment, Amelia. As I told others above, I probably would have chosen a different subject to present for this challenge, but I didn't have time or the right conditions to experiment with it like I wanted to. I did learn a lot this week, though, and I am anxious to practice the technique again!

It's been a mighty long time since I tried Fill Flash and this result shows the considerable difference. Inspires me to keep on trying this technique, Val :-)

Valfal club has replied to Roger Bennion club
Thanks so much, Roger! I wish I had more time and better weather conditions to practice this technique better. I did learn a whole lot, though and am anxious to experiment with it again sometime! :-)

mir gefallen beide Versionen. Ich war bei dieser Challenge ganz überrascht. Ich werde in Zukunft den Aufhellblitz öfter ausprobieren.

Vielen Dank, Chrissy! Das war eine meiner liebsten Herausforderungen, weil ich etwas Neues gelernt habe. Ich wünschte nur, ich hätte mehr Zeit und bessere Wetterbedingungen, um diese Woche zu trainieren. Ich bin bestrebt, es in Zukunft noch einmal zu versuchen!

The fill actually works better on the leaves in the background.
