Backlit Succulent Blossom

In the last year and a half we've been converting our garden to a more drought tolerant landscape. We now have a lot of succulents, and man of them are in bloom right now.

 

Strobist info: I put a YN560-II in a softbox behind the plant and to camera left at 11 o'clock for backlighting, and a YN560 in a softbox in front, camera right at 5 o'clock for fill light. Both strobes in manual mode were triggered by YNRF603-N triggers.

 

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes, can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. In the description for that set, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422

 

If you like pictures of cactus and succulents, you might not hate my Cactus and Succulents set. That set can be seen here www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157633383093236/
