Flashes come in all powers, shapes and sizes, and the flowering of flash technology has matured into a myriad of products – that offers expanding possibilities.
This is a workshop introducing the photographer to a range of light shaping tools and explores possibilities on how to get the most versatility and range from the tools that are available, no matter if they are big and small.
