Here is a picture I just took using the back of the hand method. I noticed that he has a catchlight that is red from my hand. Still the direct flash would not have this look to it, the background would be dark, as the only lights on in this room were from the christmas tree. A white card or a small mirror would be much better, with more reflected light and whiter light that matches the AWB better. Still it beats a blurry photo or one with a lot of noise.





Sorry I didn't mean to take this thread on a weird tangent.
