Bird Of Paradise Flower From The Garden

We have a lot of Bird Of Paradise flowers in bloom right now in our garden so I brought this one inside to photograph where it's easier to control the light and background.

 

Lighting: This was a 3 light setup using Yongnuo manual strobes. The main light was in a 24 inch soft box just out of the frame at camera left. Fill light came from an 8.6 in Lastolite soft box at camera right and the back light was in a Rogue grid, behind the flower at camera right. The lights and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other plants, flowers, fruit or stuff that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. For each image in the set, and there are over 1500 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/

 

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