Last night was my first use of a real flash on my dslr, a 420EX on a 300D. There’s lots to learn and I’m generally happy with the results but one of the shots came out *very* strange (and I think, funny.)

I don’t think I could have done anything different in the camera. It’s shot in RAW and Photoshop tells me there *is* detail in the over-exposed part and this may me my first attempt to to mask out and develop the frame twice to make a decent shot.
Why did this one guy overexpose like that? Are *all* his clothes laundered in detergent that glowes in UV (even his hat?) Even his skin is overexposed if you compare it to people that are much closer to the flash.
I also want to make these shots more of an available light look, but that’s a seperate topic.
Comments ?
