Datura Flower With Buds in Black And White

I found this flower last month growing alongside the road in our rural neighborhood, and brought it home to photograph where it's easier to control the light.

 

Lighting: Lit with a Yongnuo flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box hand held at camera left, and just out of the frame. Fill light came from a hand held mirror at camera right. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other black and white images that I've created can be seen in my Black And White 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 1200 pictures, and for each one, I have described how I lit them, in case you're interested in that kind of thing.
