Sweetness of a rainy day

Outside was so cludy, was raining but inside the room I took the photo was fine, cause I was eating strawberries, then the idea came up very easily, why should not take few photos of these beauties!?! ;)

    Robert and Mark have said it, excellent shot, my only comment would be, apart from what has been said, to remove the outer frame, it doesnt need it.

    Hi Cristina, and welcome.
    My comments are the same as Roberts: needs more space to the right. Also it seems to me that you may as well keep all of the leaves in focus on that right berry, the back side ones are not focused. That may not be possible using the macro setting on your camera. If using the manual settings you would want to increase the f number (smaller aperture). I see from your profile that you are interested in getting a DSLR camera, which will give you more control over such things. Best wishes!

    Hi Cristina,
    welcome to fc. Good to see you here. Made a good start with this picture.
    You requested some critique to this picture in the forum. Let me say, I have a hard time finding any. Just a few minor things come to my mind.
    I like the idea of taking a bite out of one of the strawberries. That gives a point of interest in this composition. You kept it simple, which is good. The inner framing fits to that simplicity. The outer framing is not really my taste although I can see why you did it; probably to simulate a metal frame.
    I would add a little bit of extra background at the top and the right side to give that strawberry a bit more space.
    Good work, keep going...
