Looking Up At A Colorful Bird

My sister does a good job of growing these beautiful flowers, so I brought a bunch home recently to play with.

 

Lighting stuff: Simple one light setup using a Yongnuo flash in a 24 inch soft box at camera left just out of the frame. Fill light came from a hand mirror at camera right. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other pictures that I've taken of Birds of Paradise flowers can be seen in my cleverly titled Birds of Paradise album.

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 1100 pictures, and for each one, I have described how I lit them, in case you're interested in that kind of thing.
