Moving on from a previous post lighting dried flowers with window light, lets see what happens when I hit it with some flash
Ambient 5sec @ f/16
Black background goes grey. S’ok, I’ll use that later
Flashed from above @ 1/128 power, 1/200 f/11
Bit hot. Thought a small light very close to the subject would act like larger light.
Nah. Soften with umbrella
Better but very deep shadow, I’ll use that card again
not much help
2nd flash from below, bare, 1/128. Down to f/4 to improve shadow
Yikes.
f/8
OK can work with that. What about the background?
Remember above?
Ambient @3/5sec, f/8
Flashed, x2 @1/128, 1 umbrella 1 bare and white card reflector
A couple of tweaks in darktable and
Ta Daaa
