And if its gettng dark, use a tri-pod, those little ones are good but if you can find a professional one even better. Also photoshop software is also a good thing to have, I agree. <BR/><BR/>All the best,<BR/>Monika KorngutAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-59076480671147463132007-02-13T02:49:00.000+01:002007-02-13T02:49:00.000+01:00I agree about backing up a bit.I also agree about ...I agree about backing up a bit.<BR/><BR/>I also agree about the macro setting taking a while to focus.<BR/><BR/>Last summer, i dragged all my food photos out to the deck!

It'll make all the difference. That said, I've never thought your pics were particularly lacking....Michelle | Bleeding Espressohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13578703393987896737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-85384041669170088652007-02-11T10:59:00.000+01:002007-02-11T10:59:00.000+01:00I think a close focus lens is essential (probably ...I think a close focus lens is essential (probably wideangle zoon)& agree with the natural light.<BR/>Oh - it needs to be SLR!<BR/><BR/>Loulou - where are you based in S of F?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-62615711149250977802007-02-10T13:34:00.000+01:002007-02-10T13:34:00.000+01:00Thanks for responding!

I don't know what kind of camera you have, but some digital cameras don't do macro shots very well, so you might want to back up a bit (I say this without having gone to look at any of your food pr0n). <BR/><BR/>I read a great explanation by a food blogger of how she gets her photos with a simple point-and-shoot; <A HREF="http://somethingsoclever.blogspot.com/2006/07/faq.html" REL="nofollow">here's the link</A>.<BR/><BR/>She's got some good tips. And Photoshop can really help. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
