Ah yes, the torch vs. flashlight debate! I really like this shot. This is something I will read up on (even though I don't have a completely white wall in my home- I do have a marble top table that I can turn white with processing!).
@dulciknit - glad you noticed. Yes, well observed. I think it defines this shot. It is a reflection from the wooden frame from which the torch and my flash units are suspended. I liked that colour so left it in. Normally I would have masked the frame or taken the shot differently - but it worked here.
Nice shot to illustrate a nice article. I once spent a summer assisted a photographer in photographing motorcycle parts for a catalog. This was what we used for the background in all the shots.
I carry one on my belt and you would be amazed how handy it is!
