Description My first try at food-photography, so please be nice. ^^
I have no clue about decorating or anything, i just tried to make it look like it was a sunny afternoon.

I took the shot with the intention to put text on it, as it is to be used as an advertisement, that's why the cake is out of focus, to not interfere too much with the text to be put in.

Even the background colour here is tasty and somehow...there's some atmosphere of celebration, holiday. And some idyllic 50s

It does seem like it was taken in a sunny afternoon. (: And I like the addition of the coffee beans around the coffee cup. Looks nice!

derJake In reply to Pimthida [2008-10-13 15:17:49 +0000 UTC]

Yup, i tried to get it. Prepared and decorated everything in advance, did lots of testing on the light, then brewed and poured the coffee just about a minute before i took this shot. Thought the light coming from behind would illuminate the steam, but i guess it was coming from the wrong angle.

hmm...sehr lecker. Ich find auch die Kombination mit den Kaffeebohnen gut, obwohl man die glaub ich auch hΓ€tte weglassen kΓΆnnen.

Was natΓΌrlich nicht so toll ist, dass dein Tisch einscheinend zu klein ist und du deswegen den Kuchen und den Kuchenteller auf der anderen Seite anschneiden musstest. Das ist etwas Γ€rgerlich, ansonsten wΓΌrde das Bild fast wie aus einer Melitta Werbung aussehen ^^

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

derJake In reply to Moramarth [2008-03-08 10:30:11 +0000 UTC]

Naja die Kaffeebohnen sollten das ganze halt verstÀrken und der Tasse noch ein bißchen Farbe und Kontrast bieten. Sonst wÀre das ganze Bild irgendwie ein Einheitsmatsch, bis auf den Kaffee in der Tasse.

Ja, hatte ich glaube schon geschrieben, der Tisch war echt zu klein und der Teller, auf dem das Kuchenstück stand, zu groß, als dass mir die Komposition irgendwie richtig zusagen würde.

Danke fΓΌr den Comment!

I like it! Although I wouldn't have cropped the cake

Other than that, it's perfect. Plus I love coffee and that just makes it all much more awesome

derJake In reply to sayomgwtf [2008-02-29 06:40:17 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm, yeah, maybe i should go for a bigger table next time. Couldn't make the crop much bigger withouth having the edges of it in the frame and making the pic a whole more cluttered.

Haha, thank you, i'm a caffeine and therefore partly coffee-addict, too.

It also could be that unconsciously I just want to devour that entire cake
