That shadow is just too bright and saturated to provide depth.

On second thought, it may be that the orange is too dull

^ My crits.

* there was one color which was meaningless - removed.
* bright color needed to be brighter
* In general, color temperature should rise as brightness does. hence I changed this to have red silhouette, progressing to pink  shadows and then orange-yellow highlights.
Before I edited it, the temperature was jumping around (particularly, you had yellow-brown-pink-yellow (silhouette, AA, shadow, highlight). Keep it simple if possible.
* I added some white on the intuitive guess that it would suit.
