Glowing raspberries and what you can do with a zoom lens

You've probably heard of and maybe even eaten golden raspberries, but have you ever seen glowing golden raspberries?

 Or perhaps blue raspberries?

 And then the original, one of my first attempts at photographing food; not real stunning, but I think it's good enough to convince someone to want eat them . . .  =)

What can you do with a zoom lens? You can get three picutres out of one compostiton pretty much:

What you see from your eye level  (A bunch of neat clouds)

 

A particular subject ( I liked how the clouds formed lines and added part of the riverbrich tree for interest.)

  

A specific part of that subject (I wanted just these three lines)



Which can then be edited for a different look!
