Let me answer for Qarik. The flash was in TTL mode but the camera was in manual (possibly aperture priority). Right? This lets the aperture/flash work in combo to properly expose the foreground while using the shutter speed in manual mode to capture the ambient light in the background. (Then again, I could be wrong).

TTL and full manual in this case. hmm..I am not really sure what would happen if I was in aperture mode...I don't think that would work as the SS would go so slow to get exposure unless blurry bg is what you are going for.
