Reflecting On Hibiscus Petals
I placed an orange, a red, and a pink hibiscus flower petal on a mirror to photograph.
Lighting stuff: Lit with a YN560-III in a 24 inch softbox at camera left. Fill light came from a small hand mirror at camera right. The flash, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N. I used side lighting in order to create the shadows that reveal shapes and textures.
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
