I find the background color 'wrong' (whatever that means! :)) with this flowers, though.

What was the lighting?

Hi Geoffrey,

This is a completely new thing for me.

I grabbed the least bad matte board that I have.  I would like to hear what colour or shade you would have gone with.

Lighting? I have no kind of studio. It was a sunny winter day, and I opted for natural light from a north facing window - the light is coming from front left.

I posted it as somewhere between a demonstration , and an image I am quite pleased with.

Dave
