A rare chance to grab a few portraits today ...... here's one, easily set up with our youngest (and last!) on the table. Lit with on-camera flash only, bounced from the side wall and flagged.

Nice one Nigel. A very "natural light" portrait achieved with flash.

You've captured a truly delightful and natural expression there, Nigel!

Perhaps just a matter of personal preference but the image seems to be slightly biased towards orange tones.

Cheers.
Philip

Thanks all Much appreciated. Philip, I think despite dialling in some cooling to the Flash WB preset I seem to have been picking up some warm reflected colour cast, especially on the shadow side. It might have come from the walls or table covering. I'll re-process it, and bear it in mind with some others from the shoot..... hopefully I can reduce it further.
