Default Spilled Berries

I've decided to do a "Project 52" challenge this year. This is the shot from my second week. It was NOT done with a light box. It's simply spilled berries on white paper with window light and a reflector. Background was touched up in photoshop (brightened a bit).

Hope you like it, I'm quite proud of it! It's my second attempt at food photography.

Project 52 - 2

Kate, that's a nice image and an excellent job using minimalist equipment!

Great shot. Love the deep color of the cranberries.

Great shot, I like the contrast of the dark red berries with the white background.

Thanks all. A proper lightbox would be great to have sometimes, but I've got good light from my patio door until then!
