All kinds of flashes do give different results to the original color of the flowers. Camera does work wonders with the pictures too. But there is no harm in editing pictures to bring it to natural colours. White, red and blue are the colours which are maximum affected by using flashed. Ring flash may brighten your white flowers. So to avoid the brightening, you can use a white paper to cover the flash, it reduces the intensity of the flash, I use it very often to get good results. You dont need a very sophisticated camera for good pictures, infact I have taken some very good pictures using simple coolpix S1 (that can be bought in < 10,000 rs) and I am a diehard NIKON GUY!!. I remember Navendu always used D60 with 60mm Nikkor lens, with Vivitar ring flash and got some extraordinary results, his only drawback was, he never takes pictures of flowers with leaves, that may not be taxonomically correct. But he is one of the best young photographers I have ever met. Apart from good photograph a good taxonomist can also try to illustrate their plant with sketches, for better expression of characters. I will share one post separately with this regard, hope you all will like it.
