Day 4 - A Splash of Red

Canon EOS R5 | Canon RF100mm F2.8 L MACRO IS USM
1/160 sec | f/3.2 | 2500 ISO

Why did I take this photo?

I've started adding freeze-dried strawberry powder to my plain Greek yogurt. It really helps sweeten it up! I love the color, and thought it would make an interesting subject.

How was this photo taken?

This photo was taken handheld with natural lighting through a window.

Did I learn anything? Would I do anything different next time?

I should have increased the aperture to get more of the red powder in focus. Due to the directional lighting from the window, the only shots that really turned out were the ones shot from above. A tripod would have helped me with getting even sharper focus and detail.

This is day 4 of 100 of The 100 Day Project, in which I commit to take and post a new photo from with my camera (not cellphone) every day. Follow my creative journey on via blog or Instagram.
