The flu has obviously left me lagging behind, but I’m comforted by the fact that it seems everyone is in the same boat. Yesterday, at the seven year old’s school, there were fifty-one kids absent! Out of about three hundred! It’s going around, for sure.
I went to a lovely party over the weekend with some folks from Apartment Therapy, where I blog for Ohdeedoh, as you might remember. Collectively, these people were wonderfully design-minded, quite brilliant, and exceedingly friendly. It was a lot of fun.
One of the people I spoke with was Laure, who is a photographer. Look at her awesome shots! So I hit her up for a little advice on my photographs, and she gave me some great tips. I’m trying to implement them, experiment, improve.
So for this week’s photo, here’s a shot I took with her advice. These are mango oranges, which I saw at Whole Foods and couldn’t pass up. They look prettier than they taste. I mean, they taste fine, but they aren’t really mango tasting, which is kinda what I expected. I guess the main thing is that they have that lovely pink tint around the peel.
Mostly, my challenge is lighting. So I thought these turned out pretty nicely.
