This setup was shot out of doors in shade. Post-processing was done in LrC. It was shot with the Olympus E-M5 Mark II at 1/125, f/11, 13mm, ISO 100. Post-processing was done using Lightroom Classic. I had fun playing around with various fruits and vegetables that I found in the refrigerator. I used a card table with a table cloth draped over it for the background. I shot about 125 images the day I was doing this image.

Produce an image where "something edible" is evident in the composition. It does not matter if it is a photo of a stylized food presentation, someone enjoying (or not) delicious food, or even animals feeding; try photographing your subject with creativity and impact.

Join us for an informal discussion of the photos submitted and judged for the Online Contest "BIRDS"
This meeting is an exchange of ideas where both judge and contestants can express their vision and perception of the submitted and critiqued images,
We hope you take advantage of this opportunity to learn from each other and further your technical and artistic photography skills.
Join Ron Magil for a fun and educational evening as he relates his adventures and displays his awesome photographs.
“K’wasi – from Cub to King!” is the story of one of the first lions ever born at Zoo Miami and the incredible hardships he had to overcome to survive against all of the odds. Ron will show us how to create emotional images that connect people to wildlife.
This contest is for elements or lines in the composition that do not intersect or meet each other. Examples include railway lines, road markings, ladders, powerlines, and stairs. You can find examples that are also present in food, nature, flora, fauna, and animals.
No matter what type of bird you photograph in the wild, in the Zoo, or in captivity, show your creativity by submitting your best bird photos.
Support your fellow KCC members by casting your votes for your favorite five images.
Digital Challenge…Now it is your turn. I have critiqued your digital images. Some agree with my assessments...some do not. What follows is my methodology and reasons. How objective are you when self-critiquing your photographs? Can you separate your emotional connection to your image?
