One of the challenges I’ve set for myself in 2012 is to follow in the footsteps of Shutterbean, one of my blogging idols, and capture a food-related photograph every day.
With the aim of improving my photographic skills, I’ve decided to add another element to my gastronomic version of #Project366 and only use Instagram to edit these snapshots. The single shape option offered in this package will force me to think more carefully about the composition of my images, and I’m intending to develop the art of focussing the viewer’s gaze on a certain spot by using the tilt-shift tool and wide range of filters more effectively.
I hope that you enjoy these brief insights into how everyday life appears through the eyes of a food fanatic!
Day #1 – Having totally forgotten to take any photos of the numerous meals I’d cooked during the first day of 2012, I was forced to settle for a snapshot of my healthy bedtime snack (my favourite Jordan’s cereal bar and mug of tea)
Day #2 – Finishing up the last of my vat of homemade honeyed carrot soup for lunch, topped with a handful of toasted butternut squash seeds
Day #3 – A pile of roasted butternut squash, apple and shallot, scented with rosemary and cinnamon and awaiting its transformation into a superb soup recipe from Jamie’s Great Britain cookbook
Day #4 – Resting my weary feet during a shopping expedition in central London with a refreshing swirl of Pinkberry’s natural frozen yoghurt, scattered with blueberries
Day #5 – Most mornings after the gym I refuel with a balanced breakfast of fat free yoghurt, delicious Dorset Cereal muesli and sliced banana (plus a naughty drizzle of honey!)
Day #6 – An exciting delivery of crunchy chocolate and honeycomb Fox’s Ambers biscuits that I won through a competition on kerrycooks blog
Day #7 – Admiring the vast display of old-fashioned confectionery (and giant glass jars) on display at the Sweet Treat Company during a visit to Winchester
