What is the best camera in the world? It is said that the best camera is the one that is always with you. For many, it is the humble phone camera in their pocket, ready to shoot whatever they fancy.
Saw this nice sunny sky and sign today. I had only the Samsung Galaxy S3 with me and it did its job very well. A 10,000 dollars bulky camera is practically worthless when you miss shots because you don’t want to carry it all the time. True?
Did you know that many of the nice food shots you see in glossy recipe books are photographed by a window? If you are a food blogger or like photographing your food, look for a seat near the window, if it is in the day. Half your lighting worries are over.Here, I used two Galaxy S3 LED lights to highlight the sliced pieces. The main “moon light” comes from the window at the back. White balance was tuned to be slightly blue. Conqueror Paper texture filter added with PicsPlay app.
The aunties from Angel Cake House are back as Joy Bakery. Shown here are their bite-size mini mooncakes. Great for those of you wanting to try this Mid Autumn Festival delicacy for the first time.
Always dine with someone who is also using a Samsung Galaxy S3 phone or similar 🙂 Here, JM Bariani House’s mutton beriani rice with rose syrup was lit by two Galaxy 3 LED lights. One was held behind the glass and the other at the side of the plate. Photographed with Olympus OM-D and Pana-Leica Summilux. Colours muted with one of Snapseed’s vintage filters.
