I would have used a different colour background - I think that colour is too bright for the flowers.

Thank you so much. Your suggestion is very good. I think a black or dark gray would have been better.

White or cream would also be good - it would emphasise the flowers, but not wipe out the distinctive shape of the vase. Especially if you use the same lighting - I appreciate the lighting from both sides because it makes the shape of the vase more obvious and brings out the texture of its finish. Side lighting can be less flattering for people for the same reason, but here it's a plus.
