Early Morning Cactus Flower With A Touch Of Pink Before Sunrise
I photographed this wonderful cactus flower fairly early this morning before there was any direct sunlight on it.

Lighting:  The main light was a Yongnuo manual flash at camera right and just out of the frame.  Fill light is from a hand mirror at camera left.  The strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set.  For each image in the set, and there are over 1800 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/">www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/</a>

If you like pictures of cactus and succulents, you might enjoy my Cactus and Succulents set.  That set can be seen here, and has over 400 images in it.
