Well I tried something with some small, multicolored holiday lights with both a black and white background and was not happy with any of them. So I went the flashlight route. I hung 3 different small incandescent flash lights from the top of the shooting area and placed the tulips beneath. Shot with camera on tripod and using the cable remote.

PS...a special note of thanks to Michael at Pure Design for the tulips which he gave me. Otherwise I would not have had anything to shoot. THANK YOU, Michael!
