How dare you! I'm so angry I could just, just, just,... I can't even think of something. What you wrote must be the most offensive thing I've ever read. Spit, sputter, huff... BTW, anyone have a life they can lend me? Yeah, you sepia pushing digital maniacs. How dare you! I’m so angry I could just, just, just,… I can’t even think of something.

These are two of the most important advances in photography before digital emegerged. The problem is not with flash or color, it's that they are usually used improperly by the camera operator. Explain why there are so many stunning color flash photos out there. All you need is a little training and you can stop taking ugly snapshots and start taking nice photos. No computer, digital camera or Photoshop required. Heck, I have used my little fixed-lens point-and-shoot film camera to take better flash photos than many modern digital cameras. Photoshop is nice but making some weird old-timey thing out of what is actually a decent snapshot is pretty silly. I'm sure some artsy customer will squeal over that junk you've created, but most people just want normal photos. Don't play Photoshop games, just be straightforward with your photos and your customers will respond. There’s nothing wrong with color photos or flash.
