The great berry drop has begun! Everyberry into the pool!

This was a fun one, but I need to make some adjustments. I picked up a little aquarium at WalMart that was on sale, and stopped by the grocery store for some berries to drop. Woked ok, but I need to clean the glass better before i fill it next time.
For the photograph, I put a speed light at each side (end?) of the aquarium, and pressed my remote switch as I dropped the berries. Worked pretty well, but there are all these water spots in the photo!
Next time, I will try different backgrounds behind the tank, and probably snoot the speed lights to keep the direct light off the back and front of the tank. I have a nice clean tank though, so at least I can eat the strawberries after their plunge into the pool!

For the photograph, I put a speed light at each side (end?) of the aquarium, and pressed my remote switch as I dropped the berries. I thought the timing would be tricky, but it really worked out fine every drop.  I guess they really aren't traveling very fast.
