C&C these model shots

[fokker]

@Netskimmer, definitely. I haven't done any manipulation yet so I could get better CC on my actual photo before I covered up or hid mistakes in PP.

@Mesoam. I am considering getting a better flash. My current one won't sync past 1/250 and at that slow a shutter speed I would have had a smaller aperture than I really wanted.

I think I need to stick to my guns about no beach shots during a high sun, either the lighting of the model looks bad, or they are squinting because its too bright. Or get a flash that can overpower the sun.

It is a function of the camera body you are using, not the flash, that limits your maximum sync speed.
