My thanks for the kind words. Those words are what keep me going - looking for ways to improve. Right now - I think I may level off a bit and fine tune these points. When I see the results the last few days, I wonder if I need to go much further right now?. As I do not do commercial work, I think fine tuning these latest points will be a good challenge for me for the present. Good Luck if you try any of the ideas on your system. Again, my thanks for the feedback. Best Wishes Norm D

For those who may be interested - an exercise one can try to learn about lighting.
Take a model of some kind - doll, car, ship, railway loco as examples - and in a dark room take some flash lights of different sizes and set those at different directions and distances around the subject. Make a note of what each light does to the subject. This will help when you come to use a flash(es) or other lights when you want to take an image. I find a built in or off cam flash at about 45 degrees to a subject helps me keep away from back flash off eyeglasses, cherry eyes, and does not flatten a subject's features like a front flash would.

For Macro Fans
This image was done with a 0.6 wide angle attactment on my videocam about 1/2 inch or so from the face of my walkie-talkie - hand held. My cam was on ALL AUTOMATIC with the BACKLIGHT setting activated. The image was worked up using the current notes just above in ELEMENTS. Norm D
