Flash or no flash?

These two shots were taken right after another, the one is without flash and the other with flash. I have to adjust exposure for the no flash photo cause it was just too dark being shot at the same settings and all. Beauty dish on the profoto flash. 1/8000th at f2.8, ISO 200

There has been many debates on what is better and there is still no clear answer. Some people love available light and other love flash for me, I love being able to use any of the two when I need to. With flash you can create surreal looking images, without flash you capture the real moment.

So which do you prefer?

FLASH?

    tabitha - for this shot, I really love the one without flash. But it must be awesome to have full control to choose at all times!
