No, not bounce, but straight on using calculated guide number. The little Braun flash performed well, and was very reliable, but the trigger voltage was too great to permit use with modern cameras.

Thanks for the kind words.

Great !

Love the faces. Mum looks so enthusiastic btw.

And the light, even though it does look like flash is surpringly near 
shadowless, and lights up both fore and back grounds almost evenly - bounced 
flash?

Keep digging

After I posted a photo of my go-to family snapshot camera before the advent of 
digital, the little Exa with a Braun Hobby flash unit, one of the LUG viewers 
asked for sample photos.  After searching my archives, I offered one of my 
favorites, from 1985, showing my 83 yr-old Mother on a quilt, entertaining her 
1 yr-old great-granddaughter.  I've always liked this one.  It's one of the 
last ones that I took of my Mother, who did not like to be in photos.
