ok chaps. How does one take photos of someone wearing glasses, somewhere where you *need* flash, without the flash bouncing back and killing the photo?

It's all about the lighting.

If you understand where the light sources are - or are not - it gets easier to plan and adjust how you take the picture.

You can avoid reflections by lighting one side of the face and shooting a 3/4 angle.

Knowing where the light source is, you can bounce it anywhere except back at the camera... kinda like billiards... only not.

Alternatively, you could ask all those wearing glasses to lower their chins a bit to minimise the light the bounces back at you.
