Color In Paradise
This is a Bird Of Paradise flower that I picked a couple of days ago and brought indoors to photograph where it's easier to control the light. It's opened up some more "feathers" since I first photographed it, and I wanted to document them.
Lighting stuff: I back lit the flower with a Yongnuo manual flash in a rogue grid behind the flower at camera right. Fill light in the front came from second flash in a 24 inch soft box at camera left and third flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box, hand held, at camera right. The strobes and my 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.
