with the flash!? you can put tissue over it, to let less light through, or even coloured plastic!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Roscolux offers a free sample packet of all the filters they make!. You can place various ones on the front of your flash (I put then between the flash and the diffuser)!. This can be helpful if you are shooting in an otherwise boring lighting situation and spice it up when using multiple flash units!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Get the off-camera adapter cord and a flash bracket that goes vertical and horizontal!. Get a light
If that's not creative enough, tap into the output with two electrodes and use it for a stun gun!.
Oh, and put a diffuser on it: http://gizmodo!.com/gadgets/digital-camer!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

learn the flash rule and the world is your oyster you can do anything you can image with flash then:

meters coverage = GN / Fstop or GN/fstop = meters, (fotogs talk in 100iso or they specify)

order up filters and learn off camera flash
