This means a 7 stops difference? … bounced? … at this distance? … with a speed light?

Seven stops???  Why  the apparent agro?  Enjoy the beauty in the images, live in peace.  :o

I should not do math at 03:25 … it should read 4 stops!
Nevertheless less, cool wisdom, Robert!

I'm sorry you want to be precise and I'm being lazy guessing what the exposure was for an image I took years ago

Thanks for your comments

Don't get me wrong here, Armando, these concerns are honest and I am not star-

ting a fight… at all, I don't have that kind of nature.

My experience being

  • I think my understanding of the inverse square law is good
  • that my understanding of guide numbers or power output is as well
  • students have surprised me so many times before with creative solutions
I ask the question because there could be something for me to learn here or there
maybe an imprecision in the exif that puzzles me.

I cannot observe — in any form — the presence of a flash assisted capture but it
may be that I miss it.

I would get more joy learning something from you than suggesting the exif wrong.

But, if you can't remember, I can live with that too. :) :) :)

I like all three, but number 2 the most. Very nice photos, did the distillary provide the model?

I think what you are missing is that if the flash would not have fired the model would be in near total darkness. The only light illuminating the model is from the flash bounced off the wall to the right of the camera. The quality of the bounced flash matches the ambient light coming through the door in the background well enough so that your brain has been deceived?
