Cherry Bomb by aikiuser

Cherry Bomb

Cherry tomato, that is.

Another entry for my Get Pushed challenge from @salza (food/meals in whatever way you like). I had wanted to try a "crown" splash and was going to try the obligatory strawberry in a glass of seltzer, but that seemed too, um, obligatory. So I decided to try using foods we were prepping for supper instead. ...that and I didn't have a strawberry. Not exactly a crown, but hey.

Thank you for suffering through yesterday's bun puns, you're good sports! Peace, y'all!
wow so well done!!!

A little half-slice of Heaven. Fantastic capture, Jenn.

This is really fascinating! I think the "non traditional" characters really makes it!

Fabulous Shot! Fav

Cool shot

Super awesome composition there Jenn. Glad you didn't do the strawberry thing. Fav

October 3rd, 2020  
better than a crown!
October 3rd, 2020  
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Not a drop left!
October 3rd, 2020  
@pusspup Nothing left. It was a delicious shoot if nothing else!
October 3rd, 2020  
@moominmomma You are too kind, Lesley--thank you!
October 3rd, 2020  
@fbailey Omg, there was not one thing even remotely as professional as speed lights used in the making of this. Two buckets upon which a level with a hole to drop the tomato through (for "accuracy") sat across, a table lamp and another random weak light source, and a large piece of crinkly white paper laid out over a table and bar top. A tripod, a very fast shutter speed and a very high ISO to shoot. ...can you say ETSOOI?! 🤣
October 3rd, 2020  
@marlboromaam Trust me, if I could so could you!!
October 3rd, 2020  
@elatedpixie Hmm... Not so sure about that!
October 3rd, 2020  
Love your description of how you did this, would love to know how many you took?!
October 3rd, 2020  
As predicted, you’re totally rocking these food shots! Milky.
October 3rd, 2020  
@aikiuser Wish I could double fav then!! Thanks for the technical info:))
October 3rd, 2020  
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Not actually sure as I held the shutter button down for rapid-fire shooting in hopes of catching the moment of impact. This was the sixth and final "drop" though. (I had to composite in the dry paper as attempts #1-5 were pretty boring, but very wet!)
October 3rd, 2020  
Superb shot and clarity. Very well done.
October 3rd, 2020  
Oh my gosh - this is fantastic and so very unique. Love it!
October 3rd, 2020  
This is really cool- better than the typical water crown shot imho.
October 3rd, 2020  
Very creative and executed perfectly!
October 3rd, 2020  
I knew your final result would be fabulous! And delicious too! 😏

Brilliant timing. What a great shot Fav

This is really cool and different. The arc of liquid looks like a handle on the avocado 'basket'.
October 5th, 2020
