I have a similar problem. I've been to a student ball, in a tall mansion, where the ceiling is pretty high, I have only a Canon Speedlite 430EX II. I usually use the bounce technic which works pretty well, but in this ball the ceiling was too high, and my only solution was to point the flash on the subject, with kinda overexposed it. I was wondering if you had a solution for a such a high and dark room. I'd like to know if strobes are really that useful or are "omnibounce" balls that you hang over the flash work better. I'd also liked to know what does the M 1/1 mean on the flash, instead of ETTL, is the 1/1 represent the syncing shutter speed, if so which is best for ball portraits of students in such room? I'd appreciate a response on my email address: writevli@gmail.com Thank you, Vlad. Hello Sir

I affix a photo to the tile, and varnish it with a protective coating. I sell the pieces at festivals and fairs. I was interested in using your basketball image as one of my pendants and wanted to talk with you more about that. I have searched many basketball images and really love yours--it would make an excellent pendant. It's very interesting! Have a great day, Lisa LaFarga-Stevens Hi David,
