Why do some people feel the need to document what they eat? Just look at all the people who have captured their airplane meals (http://flickr.com/search/?q=airplane%20meal&w=all) or that Japanese Evo guy who always posts what he eats on his blog and then links it to 4chan.
I don't really get it. Please enlighten me, anonymous chefs of 4-ch.
i dno lol
Why does anyone take pictures of anything?
>>2
I think pictures you've taken of your family during your holiday are better justified than pictures you've taken of random meals that you've had at any point of your life.
Because every twat with a camera these days thinks they're a photographer.
I like to photography food, especially well-dressed plates and cakes. I don't care about plane meals, though. What I find interesting is managing to capture that "yummy!" aura. Also they're great subjects for macros.
because its so prettyful
It's fun.
i do that cuz... i want to remember the meals i've had... so I can tell ppl if i forget LOL...
but that's just when I'm on a trip to somewhere.
i think it's just the fun of capturing the whole trip. because i know that when i go on a trip, i want to take pictures of everything... just makes it more memorable. and that includes the food.
LOL WOT? >_<
Yeah, it's the same reason you photograph anything. If you're going to justify taking a picture of a building then you can justify taking a picture of some food. It's all or nothing.
Some meals are very artfully arranged. The colors are nice. It looks delicious. There's beauty in food, too.
'specially on the way out.
a reason might be about dieting reasons. if you photograph what you ate, you can remember it. then, you can maybe look through your digi camera and be like, oh today i ate this super fat hamburger already. and i also ate that box of chocolates! and that steak! i'd better not eat any more. the same reason why some people keep 'meal journals'...where their record down what they eat every day so they can remember. :D
...I love airplane food. ;_;
I don't, NEVER FLY RUSSIAN AIRLINES.. you will get ill afterwards.
People photograph food because it's a better representation of what comes out. The ingredients and directions from one recipe to another can be similar, but it's hard to visualize the final product from the process.
Also, people react more to images than text because it seems more 'real.' It's mainly grown out of advertising if anything. Most people are interested in cookbooks with pictures than one with all text.
LOL, why photograph food? Why post about photographing food?
It carries out and is w.
because they are ronery and to share some nice moments
