Dinner of the Harvest

Beautiful dinner orchestrated by my good friend David. So much thought and consideration invested in this feast he prepared for us. Do yourself a favour and go to his blog to get inside the mind of someone who cares about how a meal should be served.

It was a marathon, 10 course meal! I really appreciate the time and effort David put into this dinner. It wasn't a try it on the spot kinda deal. This was weeks of trying out each dish before presenting it his guests.

The light was setup with 3 speedlights (2xSB-800, 1XSB-900) trigged by CLS around the room. I trusted the TTL system to work it's magic. Still experimenting. Simple set up to just light everything up. I took some chances with this series of photos. The selection is a bit more towards what looks right and not only what is technically perfect. The cropping is focused on details. The saturation more ambitious than what I'm used to. Further experimentation needed.

Good food, good wine, good friends, can't ask for more.

Thanks David!

  1. Ahh Mr. Choi, you're far too kind. I think Saturday was special because it demonstrated how far we've both come in our respective hobbies - hobbies that we began around the same time. Good times, we should do more often.

    I love this set of photos. It captures the night so well - the colours, the details, the fire. The photos tell the story.
