Few days back, we started a discussion on food photography page and asked:
“What is the only thing/quality required to improve your photography?
What do you think? In your opinion, what is one quality that is absolutely needed for improving your photography?
Take a look at some of the answers by going to this post.

Recently I posted this photo and shared my food photography process. And Robert Orsa replicated it. His idea was to use same composition, same camera angle, same styling and just change one element – background.
That made me think. What if there was a group project where everyone could participate. Yes! You. The bulb went on.

Feedback is important for growth. If you want to get better at something, it is important to practice and practice and practice. But with that, it is also important to get some feedback. Feedback helps you to understand different perspectives and helps you open your mind to new possibilities.
This year is almost over. I started reviewing how this year went for me and if I achieved all my goals this year. This year, one of my primary goal was to grow the Food Photography Blog and attain a certain level of readership. We are nearing 10,000 monthly readers on this blog. On the other hand, I was a little short on number of outstanding photos that I should have taken this year.
A reader sent an email with the following question –
Neel, I have a beginner DSLR and would like to upgrade to advanced DSLR. However, I am also thinking of buying a Mac (and Lightroom 3). I don’t have budget to buy both, what would you recommend I should buy first?
Jamie.
People are just fascinated by gear. The cameras and the lenses and the lights and the filters. I am too.
