Sky light
Experimenting again.
Used the light from the skylight in the dining room. Dark green background and had the flower suspended 150mm above a white card to give some reflected light to the underside. 
Focal length: 185.0mm (35mm equivalent: 277mm) Sigma 180 Macro Exposure time: 0.400 s (1/2) Aperture: f/11.0 Exposure bias: -0.33 Whitebalance: Auto Metering Mode: center weight Exposure: Manual Cheers

Mark,
Your macro shots have been really good lately and this is no exception. Using natural and reflected light can do wonders for a photo as well as the combination of natural light and flash. Keep experimenting with these combinations as well as trying a smaller aperture (i.e. f16-22) for more DOF and the results will amaze you. Cheers Michael
Very nice...to be ultra picky I would have liked all of the bottom bits visible, a couple of the dangly bits have just been cut off a little bit....I'll refrain from turning this into a circumcision joke...
Soft overall even light is quite nice on some subjects and you have done a good job of this one........ but in general this style of lighting lacks modelling and shape for what is being photograph.........
Cheers ....bp....
Difference between a good street photographer and a great street photographer.... Removing objects that do not belong... happy for the comments, but .....Please DO NOT edit my image..... http://bigpix.smugmug.com Forever changing
