When I lived in Arizona there were nice bike lanes and
even nicer canal trails so I could bike recreationally
about 10-60 miles in relative safety. But I discovered
nothing angers a motorist more than having to yield to
a bicyclist, even for one second of braking.
My last incident I was struck fro
... for indoor use, where ceiling bounce flash works,
cut slots allowing 4/5 of the light to bounce and 1/5
reflected forward for nice fill-flash. Easier done than
described, but it works great. Can also be used
outdoors to reduce flash output.
