Reflecting On A Red And Pink Dahlia
Lighting: I first placed the petal on a mirror because I like seeing the added dimensions added by the reflection.
Lighting: The main light was a Yongnuo flash, in manual mode, in a 24 inch gridded soft box at camera left. Back lighting came from another Yongnuo flash in a Rogue grid that was hand held behind the flower at camera right. The two strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
I've photographed a lot of plants and flowers, because they're all around us, work cheap, and never complain. I have an album of these images with over 1000 pictures, and for each one, I have described how I lit them, in case you're interested in that kind of thing.
