What a great idea. Thinking outside the box. Plant's fringe colours complementary with the pot ... cool. I would have tried using a white tent to reflect the light, or a neutral diffusing screen as an alternative method to manage white burnout on the camera's sensor. A garden supply store would have thin woven white fibrous sheeting on a roll. It's used to cover seedlings so that the sun doesn't burn them. It diffuses the sunlight well enough to almost eliminate sensor burn-out. A roll of this stuff could make a wonderful exposure tent over your plants. You could also take some malleable aluminum wire from an election sign and bend it into a paddle-shape and then stretch a layer of the tenting material over the wire framework. Then again, you could do none of these things and just tell me to mind my own business. Yah, like that would work.
