 I wanted to play with fire and see what I could come up with. I managed to get a few decent shots where the berries colour shone brilliantly under only the light of the flame, even though this shot included the flash and only a minimum of flame. I may have to post a couple outtakes later.
Minimalistic, sure, but the clarity and light will hopefully help this one do better at the polls than my previous entries.

Only a splash of hue/sat, cropping and resizing.

Okay, I'll give you that setting fire to a strawberry is an interesting idea. :) This would have caught my eye a lot better if there were no wall there though... just the black countertop, the white plate, the strawberry, and the fire... I realize that it is hard to get a camera above a fire as that is where the heat goes... perhaps a black matboard would have helped out a little here? There appears to be quite a bit of grain (noise in the black areas of the photograph), ISO might be set a bit high? It did make me smile though and the strawberry looks good enough to eat :) No voting BTW, just commenting :)
