Hi Cat. The camera is a Pentax Opti X, tiny and flat with a flexible twist design. It is 5 MP and 3X zoom. I have double checked the EXIF details. I don't know how to capture them to include on the site, but I have transcribed them accurately. Sorry, I don't know what x-sync means. Julie

Julie, Thanks for sharing the tech info. What camera is this....
I must be missing something, 1/1000s... with flash? And its not giving any shutter-bands... what is the x-sync of your camera? I get shutter-bands with anything about 1/250s

Thanks Cat, Debi.tv,Rk, Sue-Anne and Gerry. This was shot using flash at f5.0, 1/1000 sec, 8.2mm, ISO 100. I have made minor PP changes to contrast and lighting.

Wonderful Julie, love the low perspective and the depth of colour added by the flash!

The colors sure pop out with the flash.

Colorful hues bloom so well against the gray clouds. Good flash exposure makes it work well. -tv

Aaha! Delighted to see this one again!
The use of flash is perfect, necessary and totally blending with the background to give a very pleasing exposure.
