You did well in regard to the direction and diffusion of the light.
The color cast I mentioned in another post is probably due to
bouncing off the mustard colored wall, if that is what you did.
Using a piece of white posterboard or a studio umbrella on a stand
as a reflector would avoid that. But I think you have a great photo
here that would be enhanced by a slight color tweak.
Thanks Paul.
Yes indeed the bounce was off the same colored wall. I didn't have any
white poster board on hand but I see what you mean with the slight
colorcast.

Thanks all.
Anyone have any tips for this sort of shot with a single flash? I
pretty mush just focused on trying to find some way to bounce the
light around. Directional flash was a no go in this situation.

Subject: PESO: Family Christmas Portrait
First time taking an indoor, primarily flash lit, family portrait
for this year's Christmas card. This was with a K10D, a DA 21mm
and a 540 flash. To get anything decent I had to bounce the
flash off the wall behind the camera. By the way, the blinking
red light in wireless remote mode worked well as an
entertainment source for the kid. :-)
