Perhaps.  I should experiment first with color temp I think.  But it occurs
to me that I should try using my flash meter with the bare bulb to get a
better handle on its effect, even though it is never the main light.  I
think I need to treat it more like the main light and try to get a good
ratio so that the bare bulb is like the sun and the main light more like
fill.

I cleaned up the background on orchid 1 and tweaked levels to open the
foreground more.

Is it any easier to appreciate the effect I am trying to get?
