It’s Love Thursday again at Shutter Sisters and with love in our hearts for mothers, I thought I’d post one of my Umma (”Mother” in Korean). I searched through the photos I had on this computer and finally found one taken last year. I actually used my external flash (Nikon SB-600) for this shot. The room was quite dark and the flash did the trick. I bounced it off the ceiling if my memory serves me correctly. Normally, I don’t use a lot of flash but when I do, it has to be my external unit and must be bounced off something, otherwise the light is too harsh. I’m still learning how to use my flashes but I think this one turned out decently.

I love my Mother with all my heart! And she loves me too!
