I love the whole above the table shot, but it's hard to do with my usual 50mm and somehow I don't think standing on my chair at a place like Per Se is gonna go over particularly well. With a point and shoot, I can just reach as high as I can, attempt to aim and hope for the best.
Here's a weekend of lunch/brunch eats. I like it when you can see snippets of my dining companions, and I feel like the above the table shot tells more of a complete story than my usual standalone dish photos.
Nothing quite beats brunch fare.
You always seem to eat at the fanciest of places! :P (I'm curious as to the average price of a meal for you)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots as usual, and I agree with the "getting a glimpse of the person you're eating with" :)
Wonderful set! Yes, that snippet of eating companion(s) is a good thing. And the S95(?) is a nice thing.
ReplyDeleteaaaand now I'm starving! great shots - restaurants should pay you for eating there :D
ReplyDeletenice change of perspective :) i'm dyingg to try locanda verde - i think i must go when i am in nyc in jan :)
ReplyDeleteFrom what I hear on the news, are you battling snow storms to get to these food outings? Hope all is ok over there.
ReplyDeletethese are very very nice point-and-shoot shots. in fact, if you didn't tell us, i would not have guessed that these were from a point-and-shoot. love the angle - it does seem to tell a more complete story. and the food - wow! delicious. oh, and i still don't know how you manage to stay so thin with all that rich dining several times a week =)i'm so jealous!
ReplyDeleteI'm always a fan of aerial shots of food. Man, you have like the best dining experiences ever!
ReplyDeleteYUMMM!!:)
