     The second one, without the flash, is far better.  The white petals are 
more uniform in colour, though the foliage may be just slightly overexposed.  
One of those occasions where flash does not help.

     Speaking of flash, I picked up a Vivitar 283 flash with the manual, sync 
cord, and padded case for just $5 at a thrift store.  Did Vivitar have a 
snap-on diffuser for that model?
