Bouncing Your Flash
Using flash to directly illuminate a subject often creates harsh, unnatural, and unattractive shadows. To
avoid this, the flash can be tilted up, allowing you to aim it at a large white or neutral-colored surface, such
as a ceiling, a wall, or a reflector. The light will bounce off of the larger surface before striking your subject,
providing softer, more natural illumination.
