I've been playing around some more.  All around f8 this time.  Acros.  Xtol
1:1.

These are shot with the flash reflected from my 5 ft umbrella, with black
cover on.  Full power.

These are with the flash up a lot higher, bouncing against a wall and
ceiling.  No umbrella.  Just the standard 7" reflector, pointed close to a
white wall.

Any opinions on the quality of light from these vs. earlier?  I think I
prefer the first batch that ends with this one:
