I like the shapes and the light, but not the background. Weston shot his 
inside a metal funnel, if I remember right. The reason was to give a 
seamless, plain background. Camera stores sell rolls of matte-surfaced solid 
colored paper called "Seamless Background Paper." Its made in a lot of 
colors; plus black, white, and some shades of gray. Commercial photographers 
use it for product photography because you can pull it down behind the 
subject and then onto the table under the subject to give a smooth seamless 
background. The paper is tick and durable; it can be reused until it gets 
dirty, then you just pull more off the roll. That would work perfectly for 
your peppers!
