As per Martian request I added some diffusing material on the flash heads to see how it would work with light and dark subjects. I did my best to find what I could.

Nikon D7100, Tokina 100-mm macro lens, KX-800 twin speedlight

Illumination looks quite even across all of these captures.
Are your twin speedlights matched in output, or one brighter than other (key & fill)?

You are correct as always Douglass (key and fill), depends how the natural light is falling and I adjust. When the natural light is blocked I'll adjust to the subject positioning with left or right (key and fill).

I'm guessing you turned the power up?? Looks good, your yellow and purple flowers are perfect and not hotter than the subjects. Think your on track. Look Natural no flash detected.
