Cherry floating in my gin and tonic...sitting in the garden and celebrating a beautiful Sunday in Canada :)

The lighting from the sun was perfect...The BG was dark but I darkened it some more for extra effect...

Very nice job! Makes me wanna drink one of those, really like the bubbles. Good details, Ursula!
TFS, Geert

details are well-captured specially the bubbles.. i also like the vibrant red color of the cherry, it gives good contrast to the black bg.

Well tought Ursula!

I love these heavy contrasts. The red cherry is quite appetizing....
I might suggest you to first add a thin black border before the thin red line to enhance it.
Cheers!
Robert

Hi Ursala

This simple but a great imaginative shot clearly depicts the mood that must be on. Nicely framed with the ozzing cherry giving life into the shot.

Hi Ursula!

What a refreshing feel we got here :)
Excellent exposure and composition.. Perfect saturation and cropping. The darkening of the BG did help a lot in enhancing the overall effect.

Good job!

A super shot and I like it very much! I like how you framed it and keeping the background dark gives it the WOW factor. The bubbles around the cerry are to me the "clincher"! Very well done.

Thank you for your visit and comments on my photo, "Isle of Capri". I appreciate it.

Hi Ursula,

This begs attention and scrutiny. It held my interest for a good while. Had I not read the title, I would have guessed a prickly and bubbly cactus in a glass. Good tech details and with attractive colors. Best regards,

Danilo

You have a mighty fine gallery, you should be very proud.
