Thank you, Paul. Daisies was by far the hardest one to light. Coloured glass vase, half-filled with water, opaque objects in the vase; needs to be back-lit through the glass and rear 3/4 lit to give glass shape. Then the flowers needed to be front-lit, but so as to avoid reflections off the vase front. Yikes!
Light Science & Magic book to the rescue. :-) Took three softboxes, gobos, and a reflector card cut into an elongated shape of the vase.
