OK - I'll modify the statement. You could take issue with the photography
class comment, but certainly not my comment about using natural light
instead of flash. For every 100,000 people who own one or more cameras, how
many do you estimate also have the necessary diffusers and reflectors to use
flash correctly? I'll guess and say 3. Sometimes there's no choice, like
when a press photographer absolutely has to get a shot of someone coming out
of a courtroom, or freezing the action at a kid's birthday party. But, for
most of us "civilians", flash results in the worst possible pictures. Since
a dish of food is (or at least should be) stationary, it's easy to find
better options.
