A photography challenge could not have come at a better time. Exploring the nuances, techniques, styling, plating, lighting…( I could go on and on) has me hooked on to the camera .. like all the time!
Redesigned By M and Red Lovin Pixie, 2 amazing beautiful blogs, have issued a monthly Photography Styling Challenge starting in July. This month’s theme is FOOD(What a way to kick start a challenge!).
The rules are simple. No photo editing apart from cropping is allowed.
I chanced upon their amazing invite through another blogger friend Anjana of “Happy and Harried” fame. Anjana has posted interesting inviting pictures of her simple vanilla cake served with tea. Very English.
Grabbing this opportunity, I decided to chip in too. I have been fiddling with my camera for sometime now. Time to test it a little.
I baked a Dark Double Chocolate Walnut Brownie today(recipe to be posted later). The pictures were clicked on my terrace garden in the afternoon. I clicked several pictures, but since the requirement was that of pure unadulterated photographs, I have only a few to send to the challenge.
Making use of the abundant natural light, here are some of the pure shots:
Sinful Indulgence

Hello Kitty eyes the treat
And a couple of unadulterated shots from a very recent post of mine:
Date Nuts Fig Energy Rolls
Again shot on my terrace garden –
Simple, beneficial, nutritious
Up close:
salubrious layers
Well.. this is it. I have a point and shoot Canon SD1300. The ISO was on Auto when I took the pictures(a mistake? any suggestions?). Hoping to fine tune my clicks and learn a lot through innovative challenges like these!
