I noticed the clover is in bloom, so I had to take advantage of it and take some fairy pictures. The sun was very low in the sky, and I thought I'd try back-lit photos. I'd made a little sleeve of white cotton to cover my pop-up flash. The little sleeve is one layer of fabric on one side, and two on the other. It helps mute the brightness of my flash, so I can fill in the dark shadows on back-lit photos

Beautiful photos ! How clever ! I'm sure I have understood everything though. Why one layer of fabric on one side and two on the other ?

So I can better control how diffused the flash is - assuming I even take the time to look at the way I slip it on.

Thanks! I had more posts with pictures prepped, but I can't access my Weebly admin while away, so everyone is just going to have to wait until I get back home.

In the meantime, my 'kids' are having a fine time, especially with finding icebergs, and I'm taking lots of pictures.
