"food photgraphy" news and stories

According to Bjorn Lindberg, colors taste like a lot of different things.

Bjorn Lindeberg is a professional food photographer, and though I haven't checked out the rest of his works, I wam completely enamored of his photographs in the collection called "The Taste of Color." Lindberg originally began by taking photos of foods that were truly black, then ended up doing foods in other colors as well. Green seems easy, as does red, but I tried to imagine how difficult it must have been to come up with foods that were truly white. I have to wonder how much of the photographs were touched up since the foods look really white. Personally, I love the feeling that I get from all the yellow.

While we certainly all love a good read on a blog post, there's no denying that sometimes, you just don't want to think. All you want to do is stare at gorgeous, beautiful images of...food porn. (Isn't that why we love the Food Porn posts here at Slashfood?)

Tastespotting is a gallery site that has spun off from design gallery site, notcot.org. While notcot.org focuses strictly on aesthetics and design, Tastespotting feeds your food porn addiction, and lets anyone who obsessively obsesses over food submit what they think is good (looking) eats. It's a place where all you see is picture after picture of food -- everything from raw materials to ingredients to cooking to utensils to kitchens to...the final delicious product. Then again, maybe not so delicious, since we all know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
