This set up is unique. I actually put the stem of this flower in one of the slots on the top of my umbrella strobe flash, with the umbrella below and to the rear of the flower. I set the flash on 22, and positioned a softbox in back of the flower to the upper right. The final light was a regular 60 watt desk lamp without the shade. Oh, and I set the softbox to 25, I believe. On program mode, I set the camera in a tripod on timer mode (since I can't find my remote control!) This is the result. Processing included converting from RAW in custom white balance, levels, curves, color balance, and sharpening. That's about it. Thanks for your time.

That looks like my hibiscus, otherwise known as Confederate Rose!
