How do you feel about herbs in your salad? Sometimes I am cool with it sometimes it a little too much. In today’s salad, I feel like I got a good proportion down… 2 cups lettuce 2 tbsp herbs.
Sometimes, I create a dish and I am like this is delicious. But that’s about all I have to say. This one one of those times. Help! writers block.
Now that I am more than 6 months in. I am trying to learn more techniques behind blogging and photography. Lately, I have been trying to understand lighting. I have mostly used natural light but I am trying to understand where to place extra light in order to enhance the photo without adding shadows. (I have always had this issue with a shadow on the bottom right corner that I can’t seem to eliminate). Anyone have good resources, let me know!
