Great lighting on the background and reflections - some kind of candle holder is my first guess. Are those your fingers holding the blue reflectors on either side of the lens? -9-

Part of a candle holder turned on its side? Whatever it is the colours in your image are gorgeous and it makes a lovely image.

You must be an American golfer.....Looks like the Ryder cup. The orange background works well with the silver.

Could this be a bed post? With something blue being held up to reflect off it.

Oh and...is it you I can see in the reflection? :o)

Nice background light and I think the vignette works well here :o)
