Back Lit Succulent Flowers

This plant is growing in a container in our garden, but I brought it inside to photograph where it's easier to control the background and lighting.

 

Strobist Info: I placed a Strobie 130 fitted with a Rogue grid behind the flower, camera right at 1 o'clock for back lighting, and for fill light I used a YN560 in a 24 inch soft box, camera left and in front at 7 o'clock. Both of the strobes and my camera were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N. The strobes were in manual mode and I adjusted them until I got a look that I liked.

 

Other pictures that I've taken of succulents are in my Cactus and Succulents set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157633383093236/

 

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. www.flickr.com/photos/9422
