Mystery Flower With Red And White Petals And Yellow Center

I photographed this flower back in June at the flower show of the San Diego County Fair in Del Mar, California. As the name, implies, I don't know what kind of flower this is.

My wife was my voice activated light stand and held a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box at camera left and just out of the frame. The flash was triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N. I used side lighting because that creates the shadows that reveal shapes and textures.

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. For each image in the set, and there are over 1400 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
