    I've always thought that flash is very dangerous, but in this shot it came out well. The girl seems surprised, did she know you were going to use the flash?

    I don't know exactly what you meant by dangerous but yes it can cause quite a bit irritation especially night time. So far, I avoided a serious issue but for candid shots it has a lot potential to cause confrontation.
    This shot is completely candid, she might have noticed me before the shot as I was using a relatively large camera at the eye level and I am 185cm tall.

    The flash has emphasised her eyes in a strange way. Unsettling.

    By dangerous I meant the "zombie effect" if not used carefully :-)
