Foxglove

Shot indoors in the studio. Used a single flash head to the right with a softbox diffuser. On the left was a speedlight with a diffuser.

These flowers are too tall to really get into a single shot and show detail, so I went for a macro view of the mid-section.

Canon 5D, Sigma 105mm macro.

Excellent studio image, Rob. I like the off center vertical comp and the one curly-cue leaf. Nice colors against the high key BG. Expertly done.
