I was trying a little backlighting photography, where the subject is lit from behind. I haven't tried much of this before. For this photo I put two leaves from my ivy plant (as you can see I am lax about watering) on my soft box. I had to tilt the flash head all the way up and turn the flash down to the lowest setting to avoid over exposing the image. I think it turned out pretty well for my first time trying this.

Thanks chopper. I only recently got flashes & a soft box, I had no way to try it before. I entered something totally different in the backlighting challenge at DPC.
Gorgeous shot!!!!! I love the composition, and the colors are exquisite. :)
Wow.. your first try? Very impressive! I like your choice of leaves and the little stems... makes for a pleasing composition. Well done!
I think your shot looks great. Certainly doesnt look like your first attempt. Well done. The composition of using one green and one brown leaf is an asset.
Simple, yet elegant. The orange leaf is really excellent.
