Challenge: Together, But Not the Same (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D Mark III
Lens: Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 L Macro IS USM

 I learned that to photograph sale, it works best to use backlighting. This was a bit too dark for the peppercorns, so I reflected a little light back to the front. Then used post processing to open shadows on the main peppercorns.

No, this photo has no relation to the other salt/pepper photos, other than they have the same subject. I have never met another DPCer in real life...

Good topic for the challenge. Eyes a little distracted by the soft focus on the lower-centre peppercorn.
