Shapes And Shadows In A Purple Iris
I picked this rebloomer iris from the garden this morning and brought it indoors to photograph where it's easier to control the light and background.
Lighting info: Lit with a Yongnuo manual flash in a soft box placed on either side of the flower and pointing towards the center at a 45 degree angle. I like side lighting because it creates the shadows that reveal shapes and textures. The strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant album. In the description for that set, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422
