221: Brown Sugar Crystals

I thought the coarse sugar crystals looked nice on this fruit cake. Then I took this, and they look even more interesting now.
I took the photo just before I had to go out for the evening, but noticed a tiny red fibre on the image once I had copied it over. I intended to re-shoot it when I got back, but when I returned, the cake was cut up and mostly in the freezer...
Cue a lengthy clone stamp session, but it's gone now.

Settings: f/5.6, 1/180, ISO 100, 50m Pentacon M42, 33mm extension, 1/4 flash, white cards, tripod. Some cropping.

220: Birthday Cakes

Delicious cakes! The cake in the background had candied ginger and amazingly mirror-like hearts on top, while some of the chocolate leaves on the foreground cake were cast from geranium leaves - a side effect being that the geranium taste could be tasted on them. It was an acquired taste for some, but I found it extraordinary.
I feel genuinely spoiled today.

Settings: f/2.5, 1/180, ISO 100, P-FA 50mm, 1/4 bounced flash.
