4/365 - Friends, Family and Food

I thought I'd make today about Friends, Family and Food. I have been unbelievably blessed with great friends and family. Food, plenty here in the good US of A.
Yesterday, my family celebrated a friend's birthday (shout out to Tony) and I made my mother-in-law's recipe for a scrumptious homemade dutch apple pie.
As I was taking photos, trying to keep creativity in mind, this is what I came up with. The same metadata was used for both shots.

A before baking/after baking shot - notice how much the apples bake down.
Metadata: Prime 50mm, ISO 125 (w/external flash), ss 1/200, F3.5
