Inspired by watching a Gavin Hoey tutorial on "Splash Flash" photography I experimented with a variety of setups and this is the best of them. What a mess to clean up!

Macro Mondays - Dice.
I have used these blue translucent dice before - I was struck by the brilliance of the directly lit dots, and the play of light within the transilluminated cubes - and since the light was the subject, I thought I would work in B&W...
Strobe with grid from the right and level with the subject.

Marion is a city in McDowell County, North Carolina, United States. It is the county seat of McDowell County. Founded in 1844, the city was named in honor of Brigadier General Francis Marion, the American Revolutionary War Hero whose talent in guerrilla warfare earned him the name “Swamp Fox”. Marion's Main Street Historic District is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The population was 7,838 at the 2010 Census. [source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion,_North_Carolina]

This image was created from multiple exposures blended together in Photoshop CS6 layers using the "Lighten" blend mode. All exposures were taken with a single Paul C. Buff Einstein strobe with a 22" beauty dish attached to a Elinchrom boom arm. If you send me a FlickrMail message, I'll be more than happy to send you some information on mostly how I photograph this style and what equipment I use, along with some YouTube video links that help explain this process.
Please have a look at my automotive photography album: www.flickr.com/photos/kenlane/albums/72157634353498642
I brought this shell back from Baja California Mexico, and it's been sitting out in the garden for the last six years. I brought it inside to photograph this afternoon because it's raining today, which is a rather rare event in San Diego County.
Lighting: Placed on a piece of black Perspex, and then lit with a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite softbox positioned at camera right and just out of the frame. Fill light is from a hand held mirror at camera left.
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Objects 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 shells that I've photographed can be seen in my creatively named Shell album, and there are over 200 of them.
This is what gets me where I go when my legs can't walk that far...or maybe just don't want to.......my beloved VR6.
It was hard for me to find a place with low enough ambient to pull this one off. I'd been brewing at this one for a while, but never got down to trying it. Tonight seemed like a good night.
Strobist Info:
I duct taped 3 SB-28's to a light stand, each on it's own level so it could be adjusted individually and each with it's own pocket wizard. I also had an SB-26 on the top, and I had taped a little white piece of paper on the 2nd to upper most SB-28 to bounce light up and trigger the 26 (check out the picture below). By the time I got a shot I was happy with, the cheapo batteries I was using in the 26 died on me, so I only have 3 firing instead of 4. I had so many misfires, dealing with light bouncing issues, recycling issues and my shoe coming off in the mud issues. This was all done on bulb mode, and I realized when I arrived that I had no timer, so I just did some guess work/counted out loud to myself as I walked. If anyone had been around, I'm sure I'd have seemed like a weirdo.
What I think I ended up with was a 38 second exposure at f/11 and iso 200. I had my strobes set at 1/16th power, which was where I found they recycled quick enough, but where still powerful enough at iso 200 to still be able to push a fairly closed down aperture for a semi star as opposed to just a blob of light. This is a single exposure. I just walked around the car holding the light stand, and firing it off with my master PW which I held in my other hand. I just tried to keep a steady rhythm around the car. My arm is sore....

Walking from St Pancras to the Tube station, I happened to walk past this connecting tunnel from Kings Cross. Thinking it would make a cool photo, I doubled back through the herds of commuters.
This is the small and elaborate flower (approx. 20 mm dia) of ironwee (Veronia gigantia) that surprisingly is a member of the Asteraceae (the same family as daisies and sunflowers). It is native to North America. and grows to a height of approximately 1.5 M. It is attractive to pollinators, but can be spread rapidly. Toxic to livestock.
Shot with two off-camera strobes (Godox AD200Pro/Godox XPro II L trigger). Flash A camera right, 30 degrees, modified with MagMod MagGrid. Flash B, bare bulb bounced off 23 in white umbrella.

A leftover image from Orchidmania 2008. Red Cymbidium hybrid in the lobby near a black cabinet. Strobed. (Data doesn't say the flash fired; maybe I didn't strobe it.)
I haven't used my flashes in a bit, so i decided to experiment on a 1:18 Diecast Gallardo I baught last year.
What do you guys think of it?
Shot @ home. Strobe set up is below.
Strobe set up :
Vivitar 285HV full power from top. Two reflectors on both the side of glass table.
Used black cloth as a backdrop. Triggered using Cactus wireless flash remote.

Thanks to my Dad, he helped me a lot in throwing lemons in to the glass :) lol
Also thanks to Karthik for sharing the light diagram :)
PS : Only at the end of the shoot i noticed that the edges of glass holders were broken :) In case if you are trying this, be careful while throwing the lemons bcoz the glass pieces may hit you.

Post and run kinda shot! lol, would check your awesome streams in a while.
One bare strobe behind model @ 1000 power and illuminated her face by a single light through umbrella (@ her right) that wasn't triggered.
Mashallah ...
Tech:
Canon EOS 30D
Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L
one strobe with 120 x 80cm soft-box on camera-right.
a silver reflector on camera-left.
Edited in Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop & Apple Aperture.
Daffodil in a vase, lit by Pixapro Pika 200 Pro strobes. Background lit by a Pika at 1/32 power fitted with a standard reflector. Both sides of the vase lit by a Pika in a Stripbox, behind and to the sides of the subject directed to either side of the vase. To be honest, I think it worked better with a red rose.
