I took a few different shots during my strawberry fizz session. Though I would share a few of them with you guys.

This is the one I submitted

The colours werent right int this one but I like the golder glow on the bubbles off the side of the glass.

I also liked this one because it showed better contaxt and was a little less abstract

Wow they are great...I'm with your girlfriend I like her choice the most also...

Do you mind sharing how you did it please?

Sure Bindii

I used the sigma 105mm on the D70 shooting in manual mode. About F16.

I also used the SB800 in remote mode sitting on top of the glass of champagne, (directly above). I love this feature of the D70/SB800 combo (remote flash) without the need for any cords. It gives you a lot of flexibility.

If that doesnt make sence then let me know and i will clarrify.

Cheers
Steve

Nice photos. The colours and sharpness are amazing. I'd like to see more of strawberry in a frame though.
