The restaurant owner did the styling, Bob. It's true, Paul, that some front fill is missing. We did use front fill (reflection screen), but obviously not enough. The "stylist" was attending the the screen, but she had difficulties in actually seeing what happened. Initially I did some test shots: Using af softbox (main) from behind, and a softed, weaker flash on the camera. I have posted two test shots here: Natural light: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bladt/239566833/ Flash light: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bladt/239559272/
The restaurant owner chose the natural light. That may have been the wrong decision :-) Jens Bladt http://www.jensbladt.dk +45 56 63 77 11 +45 23 43 85 77 Skype: jensbladt248 -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] vegne af Bob W Sendt: 10. september 2006 00:03 Til: 'Pentax-Discuss Mail List' Emne: RE: Dessert Who did the styling? It's normal for a food stylist to work with the photographer to make the food look better and improve the composition. One of my friends was an assistant to a food photographer for several years. They did a lot of well-known (in the UK) series of cook books in the early-mid 1980s. -- Cheers, Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Jens Bladt > Sent: 09 September 2006 22:41 > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: RE: Dessert > > Thanks - that is BTW - the whole point. > I've been looking at cooking books.
