7. Flash techniques
7.1 Bounce flash
Photos shot with full frontal flash are easily recognized by
their harsh, dense shadows. This is often associated with a
sharp drop in light from the foreground to the background.
This phenomenon can be avoided with bounce flash because
the diffused light will produce a soft and uniform rendition of
both the subject and the background. For this situation the
reflector is turned in such a manner that the flash is bounced
off a suitable reflective surface (e.g. ceiling or wall of the
room).
The reflector can be turned vertically up to 90°.
When turning the reflector vertically, it is essential to ensure
that it is moved by a sufficiently wide angle so that direct
light can no longer fall on the subject. Consequently, always
turn the reflector at least to the 60° lock-in position.
