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!

Another weekend spent in Waterloo. A lonely one especially since its the long weekend.
At least spent a bit of time and made myself a decent dinner.
Went out to buy myself a bottle of wine, a (nice) wine glass, and a (cheap shit) decanter.

The cashier saw me with one glass and asked...'drinking alone?'. Sadly...I said...'yes...'.

A lonely thanksgivings...
