How did you light this? Looks great. In fact from now on, I must insist you share the details of your strobe work
Haha. OK, if you insist. The fig tree shot was relatively straightforward. I used only two Speedlites, one on a stand off to the left set to a wide beam and illuminating most of the left face of the old tower. The second light was down low and slightly to the right (just close enough to the camera to be outside the frame). It was set to a more narrow beam and was aimed at the fig leaves. I almost always gel the lights with 1/4 or 1/2 CTO when shooting at dusk; otherwise, the light they produce seems too cold and artificial. The power of the lights is something that really varies and that I can never remember; I usually fiddle with it quite a bit to get the right balance with the ambient light. I used Cybersyncs to trigger the lights.
And now for something completely different:
Strobist info: One sun positioned slightly above the horizon.
