Hehe Tom. (You should be ashamed of the pun.) Elegant shot though. -tv

The yellow color is from the bulb itself. It's a yellow 'bug' bulb (doesn't attract insects). No problem with the WB, Rod. Thanks all for the comments.

I would imagine the yellow is from the lazy bugger not changing his white balance:-) Anyhow I really like the colours in this, nice one Tom.

Debi, just a dark room behind. Sometimes I use construction paper for color &/or to keep the reflection down. Place the background farther away to lessen it's color.

Are you using black poster board as background? I need to get something which will not be reflective. - Debi

PS Very well exposed.
