Succulent Cluster
This was photographed in our garden this morning under overcast skies. Four years ago we switched to drought tolerant landscaping, and my wife put in a ton of succulents. These have grown and done well, and I thought that they were worth of documenting.
Lighting stuff: I wanted soft side lighting in order to show shapes and textures so I put a YN560 iii in a 24 inch soft box at camera left and slightly above the succulents. Fill light came from a mirror hand held at camera left. The flash and camera were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other pictures that I've taken of succulents are in my Cactus and Succulents set.

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/9422
