Spontaneous Still Lifes
My wife will tell you that the one thing that will interrupt a meal out is my taking pictures of the food. Of course, the lighting is not the same as when I photograph food and other objects in my studio and the limited space at a restaurant table means limited composition possibilities but sometimes I come away with some gems, and am forced to try angles and distances I would probably not consider in the studio.
These are fun photos for me. What I see in them is a stolen moment, a view into the temporal nature of our world, a vision and sense of “right now.”
Why not take your camera along to your next meal to give it a shot?
