Steemimages week eight: Food photography

in #steemimages6 years ago (edited)

This is week eight of our onging search for good photographs on the steem dapps and in the last 7 days this selection of photographs was curated by @steemimages on the topic of #food photography.

We found a wide selection of foods from steemians from all over the world. Many of the posts listed here are still avaiable for upvoting. Do go along and give them some support.

Tip 1

If you want to become a better photographer. It can help you if look at as many photographs as possible.

So what is Food photography?

It was once the sole preserve of glossy magazines and advertising agencies trying to sell products. Today many people like to photograph their food and share it on social media and as you will see below it is a very popular genre.

Tips!
More people will see your work if it is tagged correctly. Using the most appropriate tags for your photographs will increase the number of views and potential upvotes that you may get from people interested in that topic.

All of us steemians on the various steem Dapps have a very simple task. To find the best content and reward it. What is good content is of course impossible to quantify as it is totally subjective. Our voting criteria is quite simple.

Our criteria is simple. We are looking for image quality(IQ). Images that are sharp or with bokeh as seen above i.e. the visual quality of the out-of-focus area of a photograph.

Many of these posts had some good votes and some posts had no votes at all. We hope that our upvotes and resteems will encourage you to keep posting and get more eyeball's on your photos.

Tips!
It always a good idea to ask yourself why you took a particular shot? What was it about that image that attracted your interest?

We have many talented photographers on the steem dapps. I hope you enjoyed our selection of their work and that you will spread the word about these active steemians. Give them an upvote and a follow.

All next week we will be curating #travelphotography

Tips!

Travel for many people has become much more affordable in recent years and it has spawned a whole new breed of photographer. What was once the sole preserve of the rich or photo journalist is now open to so many more people.

We like to photograph our travels and adventures and share the experience with famly and on social media.
There are some lucky people that do nothing but travel and use their blogs to fund their travels and make a living.
Some of the best advice you will find about a country is from these travel blogs.

What adventures have you had that you photographed? It could be something that you did years ago or just this week**

Remember to use the correct photography hashtag which helps us to find your work. Have a great week ahead
