Food we shot with DSLR - D60

3rd Shooting Project: Joo Leong Cafe - Composition

After 2 shooting project on the food pornography at restaurant, we tried our project on the famous roti bakar at Bayan Lepas, Joo Leong Cafe.

During this shooting session, we realized that good lighting is very important for good shooting, not the camera nor the shooting skills. We are happy to get a great day with great lighting as we sit quite near to the front door with brighter environment.

After several trial on the manual mode, we tried to play with something else, not the camera setup, shooting angle, nor the shutter speed or aperture. We tried the composition.

What is composition and how to get a good composition in the photo? I believe no one able to teach how to get a good composition in the photo, senses is the key to get the good composition. We did ask a lot of GURU in the area and the only advice we had is keep on shooting, shooting and shooting. Practice make perfect. Only keep on practicing will help to train up our sense to get great shot.

Here is the practice session we had at the cafe, let us know if you like it. Thanks.
