I wanted to mention - In the video when he bounces the flash off the ceiling, make note of the 'raccoon eyes' (dark eye sockets) his subject has. That can be avoided by using a 'bounce card'. Some hot shoe flashes have a small built in bounce card, you can buy accessories that function as a bounce card, and you can easily make your own bounce card. bounce card - Bing

Who is the hack that set up the awful lighting on his video? Wow, what a crap job!!! That burned out entire left hand side of the frame, with the huge, four-foot tall,overexposed (glowing!) white vase competing for the narrator's attention??? What a joke! My gawd, talk about do as I say and not as I do...

I'll try to watch the video tomorrow when I have more time. Upon first glance he mentions a few of the same things that I'm currently reading in "Captured by the Light" by David Ziser.

Thanks for always finding good info to help us learn!
