Bird In The Light - A Different Perspective
Yesterday a friend came over, and we took some lighting gear and a few subjects out to the garage to play with lights. I picked this flower yesterday, and decided to take a different perspective on this kind of flower than I usually do. I would hate it if my pictures of these flowers all looked the same.
Strobist info: Lit with one Strobie 130 in a Rogue grid behind the flower at 10 o'clock for back lighting, and a YN560 in a 24 inch softbox camera right at 4 o'clock for fill. Both strobes were in slave mode and were triggered by the pop up flash on my camera. I just adjusted the power output of the strobes until I got a look that I liked.
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/
Other pictures I've take of these beautiful flowers can be seen in my Birds of Paradise set, if you like this sort of thing. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157631967781801/
