FLASH
PICTURES
OF
GROUPS
When a picture includes several people, they should all
be
about the
same distance from the camera
so
all will
be
lighted evenly by
the
flash.
In
the left picture, the people were at varying distances from the camera
and each
was
lighted differently. The photographer focused
on
the
woman in the center, who
is
the only person correctly exposed.
In
the right picture, everyone
was
about the same distance from the
camera and each person
was
lighted equally
by
the flash. All are
correctly exposed.

FLASH
REFLECTIONS
If
you
aim the camera directly at
a
reflective surface - a mirror,
shiny
wall, window, photograph,
or
painting-your
picture will
be
spoiled
by
a reflection of the
flash, a "hot spot."
You
can avoid
this
problem
by
standing to one
side of your subject and shooting
from
an
angle rather than head-on.
The
same principle applies to
people wearing glasses.
Ask
them to turn slightly away from
the camera.
