Pixel Darkroom Photography

This is some extra food I shot a couple of days ago. They are besides my 365 project. Today’s post is here.

Strobist info: 580 EX CL 1/128 zoomed to 28mm, CR bounced off umbrella 1/8 24mm zoom, ISO 100, 1/200. Setup shot here.

This is just another food shot that I tried today. I must say I don’t really believe in luck. But when your lovely wife cooks Thai food and arranges it so beautifully, then you must take out all the gear and set up to take a shot, and feel lucky at the same time. Not only does this look great it also tastes much much better than it looks. I’m still learning about food photography and styling. The first rule is this: eat before you setup.

Strobist info: 580 EX x2 + 580 EX in three groups. A into the closed umbrella at 1/1 CR, B through a diffuser at 1/2 CL and C at 1/128 CR, hand held by yours truly to fill under the plate. 50mm prime, 1/200, f7.1 Setup shot here.
