Light on White

I've always been reluctant to use flash on flowers, especially white flowers. But, with the advent of Nikon's R1C1 macro studio "Creative Lighting System (CLS), I was amazed at how well it worked here. With the lower power flashes and the ability to dial back the power, hand held macro flash photography gives the photographer the ability to work in areas where "no tripod has gone before..."
Two flashes used, the secondary dialed back one stop less than the primary flash. Shot at a great outdoor arboretum on Whidbey Island, WA, and was used on a Nikon advertising campaign for the R1C1.
