natural-looking shot. This shooting technique is called “Bounce ash
photography”.

If the ceiling or wall for bouncing the ash light on is too far away,
shooting with the appropriate exposure may not be possible since the
bounced ash light may not reach the subject.
o
If your shots are too dark, either reduce the aperture value (f/number) to
open the aperture, or increase the ISO speed and try again.
o
Select a ceiling or wall that is close to a white color for bouncing the ash
light o for high reectance. If the bounce surface is not white, a color
cast may result in the picture or shooting with the appropriate exposure
may not be possible since the bounced ash light may not reach the
subject.
