Ahh, just read strobist 102 and it mentioned about shooting a pic with only 1 flash. David also mention about using glass as the background fill light (which he call as light bending -- er, sort of avatar the legend of aang).

After reaching home, I try to gather all the tools for the experiment. A glass (green color, get it free from Mc. D), flash, wireless trigger and finding the spot to lay down all my gear (I dont have tripod or boom, that's why I only use surrounding whatever to hold my flash or other things).

Make a test frame, one, two, three, but still cannot produce something like David did in his blog. Frustrating and still changing the distance of flash, the position of glass, back and forth, sweaty, smelly, add diffuser and take off it off -- and at last the 20th something frame is what I called the best for today. Still, this shot is only a decent shot, not even come close to my mind or what David show it in his blog.

One experience learned, but still I need to improve it again. Hopefully can think out (or reverse engineer) the lighting technique. More tk.
