IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO YOU YOUR PICTURES ARE none of the above ANY WAY. :lol:

Joking apart I think even with the digital cameras of today practice makes perfect.
You cant just strap A strobe to your camera and think you will take perfect pictures.. :shock:

Some of the best pics I have seen are the ones taken by Pav.

I go with the idea that you have a strobe- specially in the UK when even at arms length the output from the flash is useless even at 5 metres. saying that I have had soooo much trouble with my set up but thats just operator error!even with a strobe in perfect 20m viz conditions a strobe wouldnt be powerful enough to take a wreck shot for instance. I had some great pics taken with mine last year in cornwall at 25m. better than I ahve managed anywhere else anyway :(

YOU CAN READ!!!!!!!!! never knew that... :D :D

Strobes are only any good if they are really powerful and you understand were to place them and have good trim "you go up and down" is no good......

the best thing to do is get a photoshop geek to put the images correct back on land.
