Food and Art



Hi There !

Im surprise after checking on my friends social media.. I know him for almost a year now.. and I know he loved to take pictures of his food creations. He started with just simple camera  Japanese lunch box or Bento, its look neat and to be honest.. it just exactly like Japanese who made those Bento's !

After Bento he tried other Asian foods and start to get profesional, and I just knew that making food pictures can be sooo.... interesting and need alot of details and tools not only a camera and of course time.. because you need to cook ( if you happen to make those food by yourself ) and of course the presentations, you can check on the tools here I post one of his picture while making it.

So beside the presentation, the way you capture the food and the most important thing is.. you need to put feeling to it... so the picture can speak by it self.. sometimes food pictures look neat.. nice colours..but people dont think its yummy or they dont want to have it for their lunch...well that is my opinions.. but Mark's pictures most of them make me want to have it on my table hehehe so.. I think he did it .... and he is making an Art :)

I will share the url of his pictures when he decide to show his food pictures for public.. for now.. here are some of his pictures.. from the simple picture ( Bento ) with simple camera to other high quality pictures :)
hope you all like it

Cewe umum *typical female*



Menarik untuk di bahas, setelah ngobrol - ngobrol sama seseorang nun jauh disana, jenis kelamin laki - laki.
Setelah ngobrol panjang, kalimat yang keluar adalah " kamu seperti kebanyakan cewe umum nya ya "
saya pun terdiam dan bingung... oh berarti turun deh 1 poin, ga pingin menganalisa, dan berpikir apa dibalik kata - kata itu... saya buat becanda aja... lalu dia kira saya ini bukan perempuan ? lantas banci ? saat dibalas seperti itu dia cuma diem aja...
kalau laki - laki bilang sulit mengerti wanita, boleh dong perempuan  berkata " bingung ngikutin pikiran pria " karena kalau kita seperti kebanyakan perempuan lantas dia berharap kita seperti apa dong ?
pelangiku hari ini memang bikin senyum senyum...

This is interesting, after talking to someone that live far away .... theres a time he said " I think you're a typical female " I get silent and confuse.. is this mean that I get bad impression ? wow... I dont want to analize, or think what behind his words, so I make a joke on that... " well what you think I am.... shemale ?" he didnt replied back... 
When a man said they facing hard time to understand women,  women sometimes get lost to understand men too.. when I remember his word about me as typical female... so what he expect me to be ?....
my rainbow of the day make me smiles....
