If I would've used more fill flash, it would be apparent that I used flash head-on... so I blame it on the equipment

Like the 1st, only thing is it seems a little washed out and would be a poor print out.
2nd looks false
The rest just look like mug shots. You need to work on getting a more natural facial shots, I can tell you it's not easy.

uuhh no

Even a 5 cent piece of tinfoil would work a hell of a lot better than direct flash

Yeah, I saw it, I thought u meant indoors though. This is a great idea for outdoors, I need to find someone to hold it tho.

Here are a couple with the 12mm lens. I exposed for the sky to avoid blowing it out thus the heavy underexposed areas in the shadows. The lens exhibits quite a bit of light fall-off too but I generally crave this effect in photos so it doesn't bother me.

I don't mind fall off because it's easy to fix in PS if it doesn't fit the photo. I rarely even do. Although I'm surprised you have any because you must have shot that at f/reallysmall.
Come to think of it, buildings don't move so those might have been candidates for HDR.. you could sandwich 3 or more depending on how many different tonalities you want to focus on. The clouds might look like shit since they do move

Something a little different today. A transport photo presented from my POV. This is what I see everyday during my commute around the city, except there are no cars ahead of me today.
Taken at over 100km/h hands-free down the highway..the things I would do for photography...
Again, shot in colour (Fuji NPH400) and converted to B&W in photoshop.
