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 Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






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!
