Back Lit Bird Of Paradise Flower

We have a lot of Bird Of Paradise Flowers In bloom right now, and I brought this one inside today where it's easier to control the light.

 

Lighting: This was a two light setup using two Yongnuo manual strobes. The main light was in a Lastolite 8.6 inch soft box at camera left, and the back light was from a second flash in a Rogue grid behind the flower at camera right. The strobes 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.
