Tasty Tuesday

Tuesday is all about taste. Now I do think I’ve gotten a lot better over the past year at taking pictures of all my tasty treats in this blog. I still struggle a lot when I have to take pictures in the dark. I’m not a fan of what the flash does to the food. But I’m working on it… I didn’t want to post a picture of food today. It’s a bit obvious and there are tons of food pictures in my blog already.

Hubby couldn’t tell what this picture was at first… He had to look at it for a minute. I happen to love it. If you can’t figure it out, post a comment and I’ll let you know.

Yes, I did pour all of our silverware onto our couch for this shot. Hubby came home as I was putting it all back and he look confused.

    I am totally addicted to learning anything/everything about cameras now. I blame you! haha. I think macro is my favorite setting. Do you have a macro lens or do you use your kit lens+macro setting? Thanks for putting up with all my questions!

    Ha. Sorry or You’re Welcome 🙂 I used the Macro setting with the kit lens. I think for the middle picture I used my 55-200 lens. The others are with the 18-55 lens.

    I find myself not using Macro as much as I thought I would. Since the flash goes up. Based on what I learned yesterday I might start using Landscape for food pictures.

    Probably 90% of the time, I just use the Auto setting or Auto w/o flash and let the camera do all the work. Sometimes I use Shutter priority or Aperture priority. I’m glad this week’s photo week is causing me to try out all the different options.

    Jen! I took the same picture of the seed on a dogwood tree, mine didn’t turn out that great though… We are always on the same wave length. Nice job!

    Thanks for the insight, Jen! I don’t know squat about taking pictures, so I appreciate your words of wisdom. That checkers set is so cool. Great angle!

    I’m a big fan of the checkers shot as well!
