Bird Of Paradise Flower From The Garden In The Light

Our Bird Of Paradise Flowers are in bloom right now, and I brought this in from the garden and photographed it indoors this morning where it's easier to control the light.

 

Lighting Stuff: I used to strobes to photograph this flower. The main light was a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box positioned at camera left and the fill light is from a hand held mirror at camera right. I added a little back lighting to the scene by positioning a second strobe in a Rogue grid behind the flower at camera right.

 

 

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 1900 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 creatively titled Birds of Paradise album, and there are just over 100 of them.
