Maybe it's just me, but on the group of five, notice the dude on far right. You can see a flash spot on his left cheek. Then you move left all the way to grandma. They all have that flash glow on their left cheek. The two on the left don't have that. I'm assuming 2 flashes set at a lower level would fix that problem . Or bouncing off of an umbrella at a higher level? I look forward to the your next step, graduating to a double flash set-up?
The group shot. Tough assignment for sure!! Lot to think about with everybody joking around. You did a good job though, all in all.
PS. Do you know anything about shooting Ex-Wives?

Thanks, Digidave. I see what you mean about the hotspots on the second shot. Hadn't noticed that before, thanks for pointing it out. In retrospect, an umbrella would have been nice. I even had one in the bag but I didn't use it because I was worried that I wouldn't have enough power if I diffused the light any. The sun was still fairly bright when I was setting up. As it turned out, by the time I was shooting it probably would have worked well to use an umbrella for all except the big group shot.
As for shooting Ex-Wives? Well, I can tell you that you'll need a lot more firepower than a D80. And an alibi. And a mean lawyer.
