my first attempt at indoor still-life photography. any suggestions?

Nice first attempt Jacqueline! Suggestion, is try black for background. My first attempts I used white, didn't work well. Went to WalMart, bought some black material for $1.00 yd, and a 100watt bulb for a clamp utility light. Not expensive, but fun, and results were great! Regards...LJ

thanks so much lesa for taking the time to offer your suggestions! i'll give it a try...good ideas...
