Done with 2 small flashes. One flash off camera with an optical slave for the background. Another on camera facing up and backwards for bounce fill on Chris.

Roma

Part two in a series of posts about each of the food places I eat at this week while I am in NYC for training. There is the potential for 19 food posts!

Roma’s Pizza

1598 3rd Ave , on the corner 3rd and 88th.

Pizza Delivery, This was you run of the mill pizza. Nothing special. Nothing Great. If you do not really like spicy pizza steer clear of the buffallo chicken topping and stick with the Hawaiian. This was not Canadian bacon type Hawaiian, just regular boring ham.The crust was OK, the cheese was melty the pineapple was canned.

I would rate this meal as ‘utilitarian’. Nothing great, just semi-tasty filling-nutritive grub.

You may not know this but it is really not easy to take an attractive picture of pizza in a pizza box. I should clarify that it was harder than pointing the camera into the box and firing a bounce flash of the ceiling. I was far to hungry to anything more involved than that.

Next Meal: Desert! or Breakfast. We are undecided.

I have decided to do I short blog post about each of the food places I eat at this week while I am in NYC for training. There is the potential for 19 food posts!

Falafel House 2nd Ave between 91st and 92nd.

Order: Chicken shwarma sandwich and the falafel appetizer.

The sandwich was quite tasty. The chicken was moist white meat. It came with a pickled red cabbage slaw, lettuce, tomato, tahini, and some kind of spicy sauce. At first, I wished that the falafel would have had some kind of sauce, however, my first bite made it obvious these did not need sauce. They were crispy on the outside and moist enough inside to make the sauce unnecessary. The texture was rough and crunchy inside the ingredients were not powdery or completely pulverized making them light and airy rather then dense or heavy. I will definitely go back, it is a quick walk there from Chris’s place and was tasty and filling for under $10.

I did not think of doing this post until after I had eaten the entire sandwich and Chris and I had finished off the falafel. In later posts I will try to take some decent food shots, this is a photo blog after all.

Next meal: Dinner!

Some shots from the farmers market in Northampton.

Two images from the same place. Each of a different chandelier, one printed as a cyanotype. I think that the cyanotype is spooky.

I have sold 4 cyanotypes via our Etsy store! That’s Awesome Delicious!
