Tonight I was playing with the flash in a local bar, bouncing the flash straight up behind me off a tall 50 foot tall ceiling to get this pic:
The point was to get a sense of the laser lights while I picked up my shomai ( I was standing in line to get dinner for my wife).
Then- two friend came around and posed for a pic. I turned around and took the pic. Here the flash is bounced off a ceiling 150 feet away, It is not powerful enough, and the results show. The learning point for me was just how powerful and effective my on camera flash was, even being bounced off 50 foot ceilings (but not enough for a 150 ft bankshot) . Same settings other than my bank shot.
(I guess I could buy a smart phone and get better pics, but where's the challenge in that? )
