Purple Ice Plant Flower In The Light

This flower was soaking up the sun this afternoon on a hillside on our property when I decided to exploit it this afternoon

 

My wife was the voice activated light stand and held the Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box at camera left and just out of the frame. The flash was triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N trigger. I used camera settings that let the background go fairly dark so that I would have separation from the background.

 

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/
