Not completely happy with this but the flower pickins' were pretty lame this week. Oh Well.
Shot but one of my two windows. Camera on tripod used the cable remote release. Borrowed a table cloth from work. Prolly hear about the background being distracting but I like the light in this. A bit moody light wise, not sure the subject shares the same mood.

IMO, nothing spoils a photo quicker than a wrinkled back drop or a backdrop with a color that does not compliment the subject, unfortunately this one has both. I am OK with the back drop color against the flowers but feel it really conflicts with the color of the vase. Hope the information helps, good luck in the challenge.
