| 1/50 | f5.6 | ISO 800 | 50mm | RAW |
We decided to have a simple dinner tonight, so we whipped up some pancakes. They were absolutely scrumptious – thanks, Rachel! – so I wanted to share them with you.
I shot this with my 50mm f1.8 lens, which is really sharp. By pumping up the ISO, I could close the aperture a little to get more depth of field (but not too much). This also allowed me to handhold the camera without risking camera shake. I shot RAW so I could tweak the color to the golden hue I wanted.
The color was harder than I thought it would be to get it just right. I can see why commercial food photographers use strobes and flashes because the natural lighting was too mixed up for me to easily find the right color.
