I'm sorry to say but I think the flash has killed the photo.
The colours are hard and not so soft as it would have been with different light.

Fair comment Stefan, no need to be sorry. Problem I had was without flash there would not have been a photo, it`s pretty dark up here at the moment.

Yes Davex, sometimes the Gods are doing everything they can to ruin your photos, so fair enough you use the flash to beat them.

Just the K20 pop up, have collected a few manual units in recent times and have just ordered some wireless triggers. So, expect lots of flash technique questions over the next few months
Come to think of it perhaps I should just get Matts guide.

Sounds good Davex, hopefully you get them soon.
If you're going to add flash to your photography you suddenly have the feeling that everything is twice as complicated.
