Backlit Succulent 782

Another succulent from the garden.

 

Strobist info: I wanted to backlight this plant because I wanted rim lighting and I wanted the leaves to glow, so I stuck a YN560-II in a Rogue grid behind and camera left. For fill light on the front I placed a YN560 In a 24 inch softbox camera left at 8 o'clock. Both strobes, in manual mode were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

I brought this inside to photograph so that I could control the lighting and the background. Down below in the comments is a picture of the setup shot. Strobist info: Lit with a YN560-II in a 24 inch softbox camera left at 9 o'clock, and a YN560 in an identical 24 inch softbox camera right at 3 0'clock. The strobes, in manual mode, were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. In the description for that set, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash, and the equipment that I use. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
