these are crazy:
well i brought my setup into class today — felt kinda goofy porting a mini reflective umbrella on the outside of my backpack, but it was worth it.
I got some more good experience with the flash, and even tried some flash-HDR (which shouldn’t really be different, but is…)
Anyway, here are the results:
Shooting with a Sunpak 4000 AF (non TTL, basically guess work, and frustrating when it takes 20 seconds for the flash to recharge)

Easter In CT. No room for a tripod, so I had to handhold the food shots.
So after grabbing pickup from Dok Bua (best Thai in boston, amazingly 100 yards from my apartment) Lara and I stopped into Wulf’s fish market looking to buy some oysters.
While there, we were lucky enough to converse with a wonderful Russian woman who was having a fish mongered for her.

Sauce:
5 oz fresh (good quality) horseradish
2 oz heinz katchup
2 oz organic ketchup
1 oz rancho gordo hot sauce
1 oz worchestershire

topped with lemon juice and ice cold grey goose.

serve with a pacifico beer:
mixed with 1 oz rancho gordo hot sauce
1 oz worchestershire
2 oz lime juice
salted rim
have a wonderful day.
Why does that sound so wrong?

It’s great to see lots of familiar faces, and even better to see such wonderful plating. {Just kidding, I like you guys better than the food….}
But without further ado, the money shots from today, some of which were taken by Vince and Talia.
