Can you stand another Prairie Crocus?

Was not too long ago I made an oath that I was done taking images of crocuses. So this is not really an image of a crocus, but rather one of many I took today to experiment with fill flash and light modifiers. So never mind the crocus :wall-an:

I like the lighting showing the hairy bits.

I like how you spotlighted this, um, 'subject'. :cool:

great light here Matt.

Well done, i too really dig the backlight.

Lovely lighting, and nothing wrong with the subject matter at all Matt.

When they look this - keep em coming. Nice shot

Really nice! Any chance you could 'fill us in' on how you achieved the shot?

Used just one flash on this one, and then used Photoshop to really boost the blacks. The main light was natural and had a bit of a backlighting effect on the blossom. Other than that: Sigma 150mm, f8, 1/100, ISO 160, D300S

Nice job!
