Photo 365: Day 328 – Leftovers Panini

/7 Comments/in /by

Another food related shot for my 365 project…

Whenever there is a feast there are leftovers and we ended up with Leftovers Panini for brunch. We had roasted vegetables (the good stuff) from yesterday and a quick warming, then on the stove top grill in-between wheat bread with cheese did the trick.

Thought I will throw in the grill and cast iron press in the background for this food shot.

My daughter was there to help me this morning by holding a white plate to fill in the shadows…by the end of the shoot, she said “I don’t like being a photo helper but rather be a gal behind the camera”.

I guess another young photog in the offing 😉

Photo 365: Day 326 – Rainy day bokeh

/7 Comments/in /by

It is a rainy day here in St. Louis and I shot this rainy day bokeh shot early this morning in the Metro station as I was waiting for my train to arrive.

I thought the bokeh formed by street light and water drops on the windshield was interesting.

I know technically there are things in this shot that doesn’t follow photographic rules…but for the sheer fun of bokeh, I thought I should post it for day:326

Happy Thanksgiving folks..enjoy your turkey or tofurkey (if you’re a vegan)!

Photo 365: Day 325 – DPS: White on White

/9 Comments/in /by

Today’s daily shoot assignment: Go white on white today. Make a photograph of a white subject on a white background.

Decided to try daily shoot assignment this evening as I hadn’t made my shot until 9:00 PM and I was running out of ideas. So glanced over DPS assignment and it looked very interesting. What popped my mind was, an egg on a white cardboard.

Shot this under kitchen/CFL lighting. To bring out the texture and highlight the shadows, shot this @f/11 for a 2sec exposure.

Will have to wait and see what tomorrow brings 😉

That’s the view as seen from our dining area window.

This was something I came up at last moment. I had few other shots that I took during my visit to the library this afternoon but I couldn’t resist posting this for day: 322, as I’m a big fan of low light photography.

I really like the way this shot turned out.

Layers: not the Photoshop kind – it’s the layers on an Onion 😉

Photo 365: Day 320 – Dirt Cheap

Quick snapshot for day:320

Had to take my car for an oil change this evening and as I was waiting for my car to be fixed, shot this store sign. For folks not from St. Louis area, Dirt Cheap is a liquor store chain in this area.

Now, did I mention I don’t drink 😉

Photo 365: Day 319 – Pomegranate (again)

Ripe pomegranate ready to be consumed.

We found that, you don’t have to consume the pomegranate as soon as your buy it from the store but let it sit in a cool spot for about 2+ weeks until the rind begins to harden. It’s just about time for this to be split open 😉

I ended up shooting this macro for it’s texture and color. Used another pomegranate as a backdrop.
