 Wizard of Oz snowglobe. Lit by a flashlight inside of an orange bag. I had a larger crop which was nice but after some CC (some folds in the backdrop were visable) from my Nor'easter teammates we settled on this much nicer crop. 130mm zoom.

That is really beautiful. I love the background colour and its contrast to the green glass.
