I thought my friend Stoney, the brilliant photographic artist, might be making it up.
But no.
The headline of the online Shutter magazine article actually reads:
- How to Effectively Bounce Flash at an Event with Vanessa Joy
Stoney shrewdly asks:
- Would these techniques work if Vanessa weren’t there?
I can’t help but be reminded of Paul Simon’s Graceland lyric:
- There’s a girl in New York City, who calls herself the Human Trampoline….
(When Oprah asked Simon if there really is such a girl, he said no. But how could he really know? He clearly hadn’t interviewed all the girls in New York City.)
And don’t get me started on the implications of “bounce flashing.”
