Bounce fl ash is a photographic technique using light that is bounced off a ceiling
or wall using a tilted or rotated fl ash head. This provides the effects listed below
compared to those with direct light from a fl ash unit:
Overexposure to a subject that is closer than other subjects can be reduced.
•
Background shadows can be softened.
•
Overexposure of faces, hair and clothes can be reduced.
•
The shadows can be softened further using the Nikon Diffusion Dome.
•
