Iris Up Close
I used a Kenko Extension tube so that I could get in tight on this German bearded iris that I picked from the garden yesterday.
Strobist info: Main light was an SB600 hand held with a grid to direct the light onto the beard, and I used an SB600 in a softbox camera left, an SB700 in a softbox camera right for balanced fill light. The strobes were set to manual, and adjusted until I got the look I wanted. Triggered by the pop up flash on my D90 in commander mode.
Other plants and flowers that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. In the description, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/...
Other iris pictures that I've taken can be seen here. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157623861858581/...
This looks best when viewed large on a black background, and you can see it that way by pressing "L".
