The Light is shining from an angle. its in the front but angled a little to the side, causing a little shadow on the right. With the strobe light being brigand the background being white, it lit the flower with a great amount of light giving the photo a happy feeling. other than the others we took which had a smaller amount of light with a black background causing a more dramatic mood. the stem being blurred out makes the flower look a bitĀ vulnerable.
