One of my favourite flowers. I got itchy shutter fingers again, but it was hailing outside and i am a fairweather photographer if nothing else! :)
This is a new flowers that's just opening on the plant that I've been photographing for the last week or so.
I lit this very simply by placing a YN560-II in a softbox behind the flower so that the light was primarily backlighting. The flash in manual mode was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603 radio trigger.
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
Other Callas that I've exploited are in my Calla Lilly set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157626082181550/

i have a calla lily issue
which likely stems (no floral pun intended) from having georgia o'keeffe issues
which may also explain my desert southwest issues

"When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it is your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else." ~ Georgia O'Keeffe
Calla lilies always evoke, for me anyway, thoughts of Georgia O’Keefe, Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo and Luther Burbank. Besides the delicate white whorl of a blossom there is the overall grace of a white flower. I pay tribute here to all those who came before me in their appreciation of callas.
