For this photo, I used two items I found in the kitchen refrigerator: strawberries and a soda can. A vase on my kitchen counter, soda poured into the vase, and a piece of black paper as the background. Then I dropped the strawberries into the soda pot and waited.Slowly, bubbles started forming on the surface of the strawberries,their texture had completely changed.I was amazed at the level of detail I was able to capture by taking a macro photo, as I could see the individual bubbles of soda that were forming on the surface of the strawberries. I chose strawberries as the subject because I loved how the bright red appeared against the black background. The stark contrast focuses your attention on the strawberries and their bubbles, and makes it seem as if the strawberries are floating in space.”
