Yellow Calla Lily In The Light
I find calla lilies to be beautiful objects from nature and wonderful photograph subjects. My wife brought these home for us to admire and for me to photograph.
Lighting stuff: This was a simple one light setup from a Yongnuo manual flash in a 24 inch soft box at camera left and just out of the frame. I used side lighting because it creates the shadows that reveal shapes and textures. Fill light came from a small hand mirror at camera right. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with 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 1300 pictures, and for each one, I have described how I lit them, in case you're interested in lighting.

Other calla pictures that I've attempted can be seen in my creatively titled Calla Lily album.
