Cinnamon-Swirl Floating-Raisin Bread

Abstract


Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Bread (Basic Editing)
Camera: Nikon D70
Lens: Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G IF-ED

I tried deeper dof to get the bread in focus. But then the photograph lost it's effect/concept/idea of "floating raisins".

I hope people get this point across and I do not get low votes because of raisins look/are sharper than the bread (the challenge theme subject) itself.

I am sure people will notice that the bottom right corner seems empty. I feel the same. I need the front two raisins for depth perception, so cannot crop from bottom. Also I am all out of these breads and do not have time to buy groceries before the deadline, so cannot re-shoot either. Well, consider this as an advertisement where I can add name of a bakery in the bottom right corner :)
