The harsh, directional light that the built-in flash on most Nikon D-SLRs produces can kill a party atmosphere, adding unwanted hotspots to faces and producing shadows. The compromise is a hotshoe flash. But rather than point the light at the subject, aim it at the ceiling or a wall. This means the light becomes more diffuse and even. As such, pictures look much more natural. If this ‘bounce flash’ technique is done
