Green And Red Succulent Head Lit By Flash
This is one of the many succulent plants that we have growing on our rural property in San Diego County. Like many residents in our part of the world, we've switched from the more traditional flowers that we were used to before the drought and have gone to cactus and succulents. The above picture is of one of our many varieties of succulents. We still have a few more traditional plants like roses, hibiscus and irises but mostly we are growing more drought tolerant plants.
I used a two light setup and a mirror to light this image. I had a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box just out of the frame at camera left, a mirror at camera right for fill light, and 2nd Yongnuo flash in a Rogue grid behind the plant at camera right for a little back and rim lighting.
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 over 1700 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
If you like pictures of cactus and succulents, you might enjoy my Cactus and Succulents set. That set can be seen here, and has over 400 images in it.
