Thanks!
It's a white roller blind with the sun on it. All natural light. All I had to do was overexpose a few stops.
The plant was still in a pot, my wife had just bought it and it struck me I could use the blind as an interesting background.

That combo works very well. Great detail and colours.
My first thought was: what are carrots doing in a flower thread?

Beautiful francis. The waterdrops make it look so fresh and new. Nice color matched background too.
