　　You should use the fill-in flash.
　　对话
　　Ian: I'm a bit disappointed with some of my vacation snaps.
　　Bob: They mostly look fine to me.
　　Ian: But on these where I photographed my friends against the sun, their
　　faces are quite dark. You can't really see them clearly.
　　Bob: Ah, in those kind of conditions you should use the fill-in flash setting on your camera.
　　Ian: What will that do?
　　Bob: It will make their faces lighter so that you can see them better when the sun's behind them.
　　奕恩：我对假期拍的一些生活照不太满意。
　　巴布：我看大部分都不错啊。
　　奕恩：但请看这几张，我拍时，朋友背向着太阳，结果面孔颇为阴暗，实在看不清楚。
　　巴布：啊，在这样的情况下，你应该用照相机的补充闪光装置。
　　奕恩：这有什么用处？
　　巴布：闪光装置会使面孔看起来光亮一点，这样，太阳在你的朋友背后，他们的样子也会清楚些。
　　太阳下拍照往往不容易：面向阳光，眼睛会不由自主瞇起来；背向阳光，面孔光线不足；正午太阳当头，则眼眶和鼻子、嘴巴的阴影很不美观。用一般闪光灯(flash)，可以凭其强光清除阴影，但照片看来会不自然，所以最好用较柔和的补充闪光(fill-in flash): If you don't want your subject（拍摄对象）to squint（瞇着眼睛）in the sun, or to have dark eye sockets（眼窝）and shadows under the nose and lips, you may shoot（拍摄）him against the sun using fill-in flash。
　　Flash除了指‘闪光灯’，还可解作‘闪光’。有些人不用补充闪光灯，而用反光板，那英文叫做reflector，例如：As more light was needed on her face, we sent for a reflector（她脸部要多点光，我们于是叫人拿块反光板来）。奕恩拍照没有用补充闪光灯或反光板，拍出来的照片就不称心：I'm a bit disappointed with some of my vacation snaps。Snap作动词，本来是‘迅速抓住’的意思，例如：I snapped at the chance of working with such a brilliant scientist（有机会和这样出色的科学家合作，我当然不会放过）。用照相机，可以抓住事物一时的神态，所以snap常引申解作‘拍照’，例如：I snapped my son while he was happily eating ice cream（我趁儿子快快活活吃冰淇淋的时候，帮他拍了照片）。作名词，snap或snapshot即‘快照’、‘便照’，例如：I took a snap of the volcanic eruption（我拍了火山爆发的照片）。
