Curly Headed Bird
This is a flower that I photographed in my sister's garden a few days ago.
Lighting stuff: I used a single YN560-III in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box, hand held at camera left, and close to the the flower. My camera setting were such that the ambient light was quite dark in the background so that I would have contrast, and focus attention on my subject.
Other pictures I've taken of these flowers are in my Birds of Paradise album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157631967781801/
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
