Well, they could also have just been for a "sparkle" effect. They were pretty damn small, so I couldn't imagine them being useful from where they were.
Unless they were well-hidden, I didn't see any photographers in the area. I just felt pissy today because the last few days have been nothing short of hectic-for-no-reason. I'm sick of the way the holidays have been turned into a rush to get here and there. Families get pissed because "my son had to go to his new wife's family dinner" and "my sister went to her new husband's dinner". My reply: "So what?" Let them go somewhere else. That leaves more pie for us!

The normal camera flash usually can't cover that much area, and if you are a press photographer you want good depth, and usually rely on a secondary strobe to add that for you. I know when I do sports or stage based shots I usually have an 1800 watt strobe light or two positioned to add plenty of light. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:184108 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
