Thank you very much Gerry! 

I?ve used the flash Leica SF 58, a friend have borrowed it to me, it is a 
good flash but too modern, I prefer the old ones with manual dial instead of 
electronic buttons everywhere? But this is what we have in our days. On the 
EXIF you can see the ones with/without flash, I prefer without flash, but 
for such events ?

Happy New Year my friend
Lluis
