Below you can see the setup inside the box. I used a charcoal vinyl floor tile as the base and set a small placemat on top of it. I used a piece of ceramic tile as my background. As I was taking the pictures, I was photographing with one hand while I was raising the soup spoon with the other to give the picture some depth and visual interest. The soup went over well with my family and I would say it was a hit!
