Red Eye

[Lois]

Quite a strange question, are some people more prone to red eye than others? I have 2 nephews, one seems to have red eye whatever angle the photo is taken at, while the other never seems to get it?!

I've seen an experiment on this before. They tried to see which type of eyes are more prone to red eye. They tested blue, green, brown, etc in different conditions, e.g. when they are drunk (as party shots somehow seem to cause more red eye!) in different lighting. But the conclusion was it was all BS. It didn't matter what kind of eye you had. Just make sure the flash isn't so close to the lens (which means don't use pop-up flash if you don't have to).

humm...the one who gets red eye is a lot fairer, the 2 can be stood together and only 1 will get red eye! Always said he had the devil in him
