Shooting this rose was quite difficult. I used my desktop light to illuminate the background doing this created a shadow against the wall. I liked the outcomes of this image because it has warm colors. I used the walls of my room as the background.

If your photos aren't good enough, get closer. –Robert Capa
It is a great idea to use the walls of your room as color. You know how to get rid of that nasty shadow. Move the subject away from the background and angle the light at 45 degrees. voila no shadow.
