The backround is crumpled up yellow plastic wrap. It looks more orange with the lighting. Got to play around with my studio lights. I think I am getting better with them. Honey comb filter light filter from the upper right. Soft box from behind and slightly to the left of the camera.

I was checking out your profile following up on the milestone thread, and realized this was your image. I believe this is a surprisingly low score; I had this image ranked in my top 10 and had given it an 8. I think it's quite lovely, and I admire the unabashed way you celebrate the common textures of the Background and foreground cloths.
Oddly enough I put some daffodils in "Something New", and they did pretty well. But of course mine are in the field, not a still life.
Simple, yet very eye catching. I like the lighting and the simple background. I wonder how it would have looked with a blue vase to act as a contrast color. I think the colors would have really popped with a blue vase. Well done!
I really like the contrast between the wrinkled background and the smooth cloth (?) that the vase is standing on. Good lighting brings out the texture in the wrinkles. A well composed and well executed shot.
