Food Photography,Good Food and Great time....

It was a long wait for me to learn photography with my DSLR.....Six months ago,when i spoke to my husband about my hunt for best CAM for blogging...He said the array of cams sleeping in drawers...I need to find so much words to say to compromise(freeze) him :) and finally we landed in buying one...Though,he was in half mind to use it,I started to click more with all the roadside shots and the family hangs outs...Then,it became our family's most dependent gadget next to this lappy....
I dont know anything about DSLR,never read the manual....I just click in each mode and finally choose the best(good) picture to post here...I hardly do some croping and texting in picasa ,but stumbled to the DSLR fever now...


 Mohammad Ali,a great person and admin of this "Chennai Food Guide" ,Open Forum in Facebook....Sriram Gopal,the man behind Prohive.com,Nikhil Moturi ,the properiator of Crimson Chakra and finally the main man Kunal Daswani ,the photographer came together to teach us food photography...

People might wonder why its only food photography..It is said the food and the nature is the best source to click on earth to learn photography ...

We worked in three kinds of flash lights...


4 different kinds of food served for photo shoot


The Veg Rice bowl under Hard light


Thats master piece


Some shoots with the Ice cream Cake...It was melting soon since the flash light producing the heat


Finally ,approved


And the feast was really good,The man behind the food is the restaurateur..

This happened on last weekend,And I am posting the event in my blog as promised to organizer...I am working on my photography and also will share the tips in future.....

    What an opportunity! Great pics there..

    I admit Food Photography needs lots of patience and presentation creativity. Sometimes I rush taking pics, end up with bad pics which I don't prefer at all...still I'd post them to my blog. Hehehe...

    Hi, So glad you enjoyed the workshop! You have some pretty good shots here.

    just a small correction on the organiser's name - that's Sriram Gopal and not Suresh Gopal :)

    Will definitely follow your blog regularly from now on :)

    Cheers!
