    Default Tom's Daisies

    My neighbor has a beautiful spray of daisies in his front yard. This is my effort to capture them at night with speed lights. One was placed behind, the other held low in front below the camera. I like the back lighting that shows up on some of the leaves and flowers. Comments appreciated.

    I like it. Working with two flashes is tricky, to say the least (I am just getting into flash photography a bit, and I find it challenging). Did you rely on TTL or on manual settings with this? How far back was the flash on the rear? I think if you had the front flash a bit further back, then you would possibly have had a pure black background; but then I am just starting with this. Love the colours, very nice light .

    Really interesting night shot. I haven't really used anything other than the pop-up flash yet so I can't offer much advice.
