Here are two of today’s. Thanks to the help I have received here I'm making progress. Comments and ideas more than welcome.
Here's a shot of the current set up.
For focus, the 200 prime I'm using has a focus lock ring [EDIT - focus limitting ring] and I have it locked at minimum focus distance only. I then put an object (fake butterfly ) where the HB will be and focus by distance like I would a macro. I leave it on AF and hold the remote button down when one approaches. When it gets in the right spot to confirm the focus, the camera/flash actuates.
The lighting is high left at 1/4 power and low right at 1/16 power. Pretty good accept I'm getting a shadow from the flower on the HB throat when close to the flower.
Now I need to get more color both on the throat and the green/yellow on the back. What about using a reflector umbrella on the high left flash? Or a third flash with the umbrella? Here is a poor shot that shows the throat when he is looking straight at the camera.
Any other comments or ideas to improve the shot?
Thanks for all the help. – Terry
