What fun. I had been shooting a different idea which just wasn't working - but then I thought about the needles available from work. Perfect.
Unfortunately it was the very last day when I had this idea, and the only gum I had was green and pink. I tried getting the pink to pop more from my background, but my lighting skills are weak and my PS aren't much better, so every variation I tried led to either a gray background or a nasty colored gum. This was as good as I could manage.
But I was still pretty happy with it.

Nice detail and composition, but I would have tried to get a deeper pink color in the bubble for visual appeal's sake. It doesn't pop from the background as much as it could.
