Easter Lily, indoors, backlit



Taken with the flowers in a vase on a table. The camera was tripod mounted close in front of them with the flash (a 300EZ) below the flowers and facing back towards the camera.

It's an interesting study, and I like the contrasting background, but the lighting looks unnatural (which I know it was). The change in brightness between the illuminated part of the flowers and the shadow is stronger than it needs to be.

 

If I was working with a tripod, I would try using a constant light source rather than a flash, to make it easier to tell where the light will fall.

 

You can also use focus in addition to lighting to show dimension.
