Hi, Lisa. How did you manage the black background? Did you use a black backdrop, or change the background in PS? I've always wondered how people do this. The only way I know of is to use the lasso tool to cut and paste into a new sheet with a solid background.

Thanks.

  Beautiful shot, Lisa! The black really sets it off! I've always used a black backdrop with these shots.

  Thanks Ena and Janet. For this particular series of shots I draped a black velvet shawl over a box on my dining room table for the background. It was beautiful light coming into my dining room and I just had to play around with my camera! I glad you both like the results as much as I do!
