Post Contest: I took this in my apartment utilizing a white board for the background & a large window behind me for light (as you can see in the picture). I definitely agree with all the comments regarding the reflections. Next time I'll spend more time to insure a cleaner shot. If you have any tricks of the trade as to how to do it better I'd appreciate the advice! Thanks!

Excellent choice of subject for a study in minimalism. However, you'll have to control the reflections for a shot like this to work. Also, the placement of the large vase so far to the left creates a somewhat unbalanced image, as well as tension with the too-close edge of the frame. The black border seems unnecessarily stark--your photo is fairly high key, so the black stands out in sharp contrast and tends to draw the eye away from your subjects. (6)
