As is usually the case, My Lovely Assistant was hard at work in the kitchen in preparation for some holiday feasts with the families. Easter is probably the favourite holiday for people with a sweet tooth, and those with a sweet tooth were not disappointed by her chocolate creations. The combination of melted chocolate, various sugar sprinkles and food colouring resulted in a litter of chocolate bunnies invading the homestead. Before they were devoured, they needed to be photographed, and nobody likes to play with their food more than I do. Not to worry, hands were washed thoroughly before any bunny manipulation took place. I had the idea of placing a few on a dishcloth, while My Lovely Assistant earned her name by placing several on nesting plastic used to decorate Easter gifts. The first photograph was taken at f/6.3, 1/200sec, ISO 100 at 60mm. Here are a few more.

As usual, I bounced the flash off of the ceiling, but I also experimented a little bit using the bounce card to reflect the light on the third photograph. In photography, as with cooking, sometimes a little experimentation is a good thing.
