I personally, was unhappy with the bagel shots that I got on the food shoot day. A couple days after that shoot, my mom brought home a very large bag of peppers. The lighting in my room was beautiful, so I put two and two together and decided to shoot some peppers. I cooked and salted them and arranged them in a specific layout on a very aesthetic wooden cutting board I made in the eighth grade. Of course, I wanted the largest aperture I could get, so I used the macro. In post, I took out some of the detail in the blacks to give the photo a more dreamy and soft feel. I also made it slightly more magenta, because the initial capture was a little too yellow for the style  wanted to portray.
