The original purpose of this photo was an exploration into salt, salt patterns, their shape, and basically to catch the motion of salt to see if I could catch it in mid air. My first attempt. Natural light to the left, light on the right from kitchen work area, and 420ex focused above the tomato.

Should be "salt frozen in motion" - with the opposing challenge being "stopped motion," this would have been a better entry over there. No motion blur here at all.

MMMMM. The lighting looks a bit harsh. You go find some other lights. I'll hold the tomato. :) 6.

This was creative, and an original idea. Good choice of food to be salted. The red creates interest.

Great idea - Just wish the background was a little less distracting behind the salt grains
