This week in SSC:

"Fill Flash"

Here's Molly relaxing in her chair on a warm summer day. I used my flash to fill in the shadows on her. You can see another photo without the flash in the PIP.

Des ombres bien débouchées par l'usage du flash.
Je pense qu'on peut obtenir des résultats similaires en modifiant l'exposition.

Possibly, but it might also blow out the background here.

I wouldn’t hurt one, but I am catphobic, deeply. I was attacked by stray cats when I was 4 y.o. I was eating a sardine on bread and they came for it (at the time there was lots of them here), my grandma lifted me up and they scratched her legs... as she bled they started biting her, she kept scares the rest of her life. I still have nightmares with this almost 60 years after everytime I am confronted with them, especially when many together.... even if their owners say they are nice for me they are a potential enemy... sorry!

Karen's Place club has replied to Xata club
Oh, what a sad thing to happen to you with cats. :-( I can see why you would not like them.

I had that happen to me with a German Shepard dog when I was 11. He attacked me, and to this day, I get scared when I see that type of dog.

Oh yes! A lovely result and shows the benefit of using Fill Flash. I'm now asking myself why it has been many, many moons since I tried this technique :-) Inspirational work, Karen :-)

A very well chosen musical match :-)
