If you like a photo or not is a decision in seconds. Why you like a photo or not may take much longer. <br /><br />Thanks Mowie. I know what you mean. It changed for me over time. And to write about own or photos from others helped a lot.<br /><br />Thanks Kat. Hope it was interesting to read on the making of these four photos.Thorstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17472102378529134941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5957528796056086171.post-76705866252364585102010-01-26T03:18:42.400+00:002010-01-26T03:18:42.400+00:00Thank you so much!

It's funny because when I take my food photos, I never really 'think' in words, I just 'feel'. Do you know what I mean? You are doing what I find very difficult which is put into words what you feel when you take photos.

I usually look at a picture and study a composition and lighting and I try to image what was the main idea of a picture and how a photographer might have thought about the picture.Sari @ Cook Your Dreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06469242249544167945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5957528796056086171.post-79046924726426272062010-01-25T20:55:17.098+00:002010-01-25T20:55:17.098+00:00Thanks Wizzy.

But during shooting it happens that something completely different comes out, especially when my first idea doesn't work for me when I see it on the screen in large. But I start with, let's say a basic idea including arrangement, light, mood, styling. During the process I will vary this idea or try to break it up from time to time. The worst thing that could happen is that I do the shooting and during the processing I see that the idea is not as good as I thought and that I want to do a reshooting.<br />I try to imagine the outcome of a shooting before I shoot, but to give room for spontaneous ideas and development in a different direction.<br />But no, I have never start without any idea. Does taht answer the question?Thorstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17472102378529134941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5957528796056086171.post-39851751420706019522010-01-25T20:47:13.921+00:002010-01-25T20:47:13.921+00:00Thorsten, Thanks for letting us get inside you hea...Thorsten, Thanks for letting us get inside you head. It's amazing that althought the arrangement looks random , it really isn't and there was a deliberate manipulation on your part to acquire such look. <br /><br />Questions,<br />Thaorten first off do you know before hand what your picture will look like or does it develop as you shoot.<br /><br />What I mean is this. Me I toss the fruit on the table and start shooting. As I review my shots it becomes obvious to me the things you just mentioned then i start moving things around swapping out stuff etc. Just curious - is this what you do or do you see all those lines and symmetry in your mind and then arrange to suit?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03376726661081769681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5957528796056086171.post-71611921230644621232010-01-25T20:38:17.712+00:002010-01-25T20:38:17.712+00:00Thanks Lisa.
