Purple And White Dhalia At The County Fair

I photographed this dhalia at the flower show that is part of the annual San Diego County Fair in Del Mar, California.

 

Lighting: My wife was the voice activated light source while holding a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box at camera left at 10 o'clock, and just out of the frame. The flash was triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N. I used camera setting that caused the indoors background to go quite dark.

 

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. For each image in the set, and there are now at least 1400 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
