The shoot on the dark drape was improvised. The drape is the curtain that hangs on the window immediately behind daughter's bed. I pulled the lower end over the pillows and upper part of the bed and it worked splendidly. I used the AFZ 540 flash as a wireless slave on its included round "foot," bouncing it off of the wall a few feet to the left, triggering it with the built in flash on the K-5. I dialed down the intensity to either -1 or -1.5.

Truthfully, I amazed myself! It feels good when one of my "creative ideas" actually worked.

How beautiful she is and all that lovely hair. You did a great job with your improvising. Mom and dad should be very pleased with these as I know you are.

Thanks, Susan. It's hard to convey how jazzed I was with the results. Like I say, "Can't sing, too old to dance, but can still shoot." Thanks again for taking the time to look.
