Food Photography

So its proven again that G is a better photographer. Duh! He is my photography guru, for crying out loud. Two years back if you had asked me for the exif of a photo, I would have said, “What?!”. And when G came into my life, I developed a liking towards photography for he was an excellent amateur photographer. I am glad I developed that interest, because, it is not easy to wait for 30 mins on a hike when he patiently follows an ant or focuses on a fallen leaf. But I learnt a lot on those long waits, patience being one of them :). Here are some of his photos.

Only after starting this food blog did I realize that food photography is way different than others. It is not very easy to capture a pleasing picture of a dish, its texture and colour, lying in a small plate. Not to mention the feat of food styling and plating. G patiently learnt (food photography was new to him too) and taught me few tricks of the trade like macros, perspective of a shot, lighting, etc to make a picture interesting.

Therefore, I am not quite surprised that you liked his choice. I thank each one of you for letting me know your thoughts. But I still like the daytime shot of the Granita :).
