December Daffodils

https://flic.kr/p/b4U6zZ | December Daffodils | I picked these this morning in our garden. We've had unusually warm weather for the last week, and these flowers, and I appreciate it. Other strobe lit plant pictures that I've taken can be seen here. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/">www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/</a> I lit this with an SB600 in a softbox to the left of the flowers and a small reflector the the right to bounce a little light. The flash was in TTL mode with one extra stop of power, and the exposure was at f32 and 1/200 second because I wanted depth of field and no ambient light. The flash was triggered by the pop up flash on my D90 in commander mode.
