Hi Gerard,

You got two out of three right :-)

Flash intensity varies with the square of the distance. You can get one stop
changes by following a geometric progression with sqrt(2), just like
aperture settings.

1m  1.4m  2m  2.8m  4m  5.6m  8m  11m  16m  22m  32m

Or in feet (or thumbs) -

4ft  5.6ft  8ft  11ft  16ft  22ft  etc

Cheers
Julian Loke
P.S. Hope your family is better
