Tus fotos de Puerto Ordaz y la Llovizna son INCREÍBLES... nunca había visto fotografías de esa calidad de mi propia ciudad. Pareciera que no fueran de aquí. Me gustó mucho tu galería, espero poder seguir viendo esas fotos tan increíbles... De verdad felicitaciones por tan buen trabajo!

Me alegra que te gusten mis trabajos y de seguro que seguire tomando fotos de Pto Ordaz y en especial la Llovizna. Si algun dia quieres ir, enviame una nota y nos ponemos de acuerdo para ir a tomar fotos.

Question about using the flash- I might be taking pictures soon at an outdoor event at night, there are no walls or ceilings whatsoever to bounce light/flash off, do you have any suggestions for using the external flash to my advantage without having blown out objects?! I am getting myself a sto-fen or whatever it's called, and a small diffuser, but I'm not really sure if they make a difference outdoors...

Please let me know!

A sto-fen will make a difference for sure! It will make your flash light less harsh and will create less shadows. With a sto-fen on your flash, you can angle it upwards a little bit, not so much for bouncing it off of anything but rather to light the subject with the softest, most diffused light your diffuser is sending towards the edges. Make sure you take a few test shots and keep compensating the flash output power (depending on the distance from you to the subject), always look at your histogram, or have the highlight clip warning on (the blinkies). Use rear curtain flash to add movement and a dynamic look while retaining ambient light (this is great for dancing, as you will have motion blur, but the flash will also "freeze" the people, giving the impression of movement while retaining the details).

Hi there! Thanks again for your priceless feedback! I really, really appreciate it! I'm slowly experimenting, and I'm trying to make the shots and the colors seem as natural as possible somehow... I should be getting the sto-fen in the next couple of days hopefully, quite excited about that!

Question about the histogram, that's one thing I'm rather ignorant about, are there any tutorials on how to read it properly and understand it? And to ultimately use it to improve one's photography? Don't know what that highlight clip warning either :(, I feel like a total n00b now!!!!

One more thing, rear curtain flash would be? *clueless*

Thanks in advance man, I'm learning quite a lot off you!!
