Frozen Berries by Keshia Sophia
I wanted to experiment with negative space by focusing on food with bold colours. I love blueberries but they are rarely given the starring role. Having just come out of the freezer, the moisture of the skin gave a beautiful sheen when caught in the natural light. I used only white backgrounds to highlight the subject. The macro lens allowed for the delicious textures to shine through in perfect compliment to the white surroundings. A real statement piece.
Chilli and Spice Makes Everything Nice by Keshia Sophia
When I think of spices, I think warmth and flavour. I think heat. Nothing expresses this more that deep red food. I absolutely adore Dukkah as a seasoning and love adding it to my eggs and vegetables. Between the texture and the colours, It makes for an interesting photographic subject. I wanted to showcase the colours while also nodding to its complimentary role so I used a shallow depth of field to highlight the dukkah. The hint of chilli in the background added the story of the dish.
Celebration by Jose Juniel Rivera-Negron
This was the day of New Years Eve. I took my family to a park near Tampa, Florida for the fireworks event. It was a big park, we walked for hours, there was long trails, lakes, bars, and food. Walking through a trail there was a lake where some small boats pass by with Christmas lights and people actually drinking and eating in it, it had like there own little bar inside, it was pretty cool. I really liked how the light reflected on the water, it was almost magical, when you have the Christmas Spirit nothing else really matters.
