Explored! Thank you very much :-)

SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE
28 JULY 2018
FILL FLASH

Many, many, many moons ago I would have, occasionally, tried Fill Flash but these days the thought of using this technique has never crossed my mind!! This challenge has, therefore, been a real eye opener!! And, I didn't realise that my wee Nikon Coolpix P7800 has a Fill Flash setting :-))

I did have difficulty choosing a subject and this is plastic streamers that are supposed to keep the flies out :-) The shot, below, without Fill Flash was framed a bit differently :-)

Having had an initial look at some of the entries this week I am now starting to realise the benefits of using Fill Flash. Thank you for a brilliant challenge, Karen :-)

la photo avec flash a ma préférence ; c'est un bon exemple où les couleurs sont réveillées par le flash

Well I think it also depends on the settings you choose... I prefer no flash and a little post processing, the result is more natural.
Well done.

A great example of using fill. A nice deep background so the only effect is on the subject which brings us the bright colours without affecting the background.
