Default Studio Still Life

This photo was taken inside my studio, using only studio flash light. I set 1 light on the left high up near the ceiling with yellow gel, and set 2nd light on the right sideway with blue gel. Kind of simulate the morning sun effects. Do you like it?

without the lighting at the foot of the table would be good.

Thanks guys for your comments. I would try it out again some time in future. Still life shoot is a repeatable process, unlike model shoot. (however, I still like model shoot a lot!)

Colour harmony is a bit odd.... yellow with blue are a bit contrasting. They fight for attention with the spot of red of the flower, and muddy up the neutral black in the background. Will be great if you use the lower light to illuminate the floor, which will define the form of the table a bit more.

Don't really like the colour combination, yellow, blue, red & green just don't fit.

Eh,.... I haven't seen any morning sun shine like this before though you mentioned it's simulating. Perhaps the light source gradient was too obvious to show it's from a light bulb.
