New Flash

I have made an investment in my camera equipment again. This time I bought a new flash that attached to my camera.
The cool thing is you can turn the flash up and creat an effect called "bounce flash".
Bounce flash is when you point the flash at the ceiling (ceilings can't be too tall) and the light bounces off the ceiling and fills the room with light. It makes for a nice effect.
I have learned these little tricks from a friend at my office who is WAY into photography. His name is Erik and he is my photography guru. He took last years Christmas card pics.

Here are some of the results with my new flash.

Here is Archer's new winter jacket.

Here is Christian playing with the BIG model train at Gran and Pa's.

Here is Christian not wanting to share the train remote with his little brother.
And all the nice lighting is a result of bounce flash with my new flash.
