So what have I learned from taking these food photos.
Well my main learning experience was whan your shooting with off camera lighting, it really help to either use a bloody lighting stand, or an assistant. Hand holding a Canon 5d3, with a battery grip, a Sigma 24-105art lens (really heavy lens) and a switched off flash on camera, and the other light at arms length with the left hand, means your holding a TON of weight in your right hand.
Couple that with arthritis in my left elbow and a dodgy back and you have a recipe for pain and a sleepless night after it. Still we artists must suffer for our art! I must be a buffoon!
