Thanks. I knew their dark heads and eyes could cause exposure issue (overcast), so i mounted my cameras with a flashlight so when at a distance i could push some light into their face. I didnt expect their glossy eyes to reflect the light as it did, but i like it. The photos are an example of the flashlight setup - I love hacks.

I just bought a Rotolight Neo II. Ima give it a try with the buffalo on Friday, 2/14/20

Very good idea. In all my years of photography. this method never occurred to me/ I'm going to try it.

..... a suggestion, get a flashlight that has a long throw, but not too concentrated.

I used;

Flashlight - Thrunite TN4A ($50, 1150 Lumens, runs off 4AA rechargeable)

Clamp - Pedco Ultraclamp ($22). I bought a female to female , removed the adjustable head
