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!
