“ Soft Spring ”
"Softness is not weakness. It takes courage to stay delicate in a world this cruel." (Beau Taplin).

Apple blossom in my garden. The soft foliage and tiny flower buds speak of hope and the warmth of summer to come.

Shot with a Fuji X-T3, off camera flash with HSS. Post in LR and PS.

    This is lovely -- great use of the light. The black background works well.

    I know almost nothing about high speed sync. Do I properly understand that you shot this in daylight, used a fasted shutter speed to black out the ambient light (though 1/250 is lower than I was expecting), and then use HSS to light the subject with very rapid multiple flashes that allow you to get the full frame exposed?
