Meathenge delivers a Beautiful Meat Photograph


Pork Crepinettes with Roasted Shallots, Parsley and Walnuts. Pan seared, rested and devoured. Click on piccie.
We had a Cub Scout den meeting and had to move fast for dinner. We had no idea it was going to be so special. The crepinette was so tender, so luscious with an interlude of juicy splendor. We could have done it 4 times, but 2 would have to do. I’m surprised I was able to knock this photograph out at all, let alone have it come out this good. There’s a synergy here between the meat and the photography. They are both this good.
The setup: D70 with 60mm f2.8 micro Nikkor set to f6.3 / 80th a sec. Camera & Metz 45 CL-4 mounted on tripod. 250 watt UV balanced incandescent flood over top. Main flash head pointed to white ceiling, secondary flash pointed to product. Touch of contrast & level work in Photoshop, not much. Good feelings had by all.

  2. Hi Biggles. I’m going to be in a meat free zone for the next month. In Delhi – where they HAVE meat, but not the super yummy kind. I’m counting on you to supply the delicious images of fat drippery and rested muscle tissue. And smokey flavour, and delicious pork-ridden recipes! Oy vey is mir, how is this porkatarian going to survive?
    (Did you get a load of that Occitanian sausage up on my blog?)
