Food photography conditions

We talked about how a brighter picture will make a more appealing food picture; this blog has really nice (bright photography):

The next blog uses a slightly different approach, the backgrounds are generally quite dark but the lighting on the food is coming from a flash I believe?

This one is harder to figure out; generally lighter pictures but it definitely looks like indoor lighting:

If we have a chance to talk about how these pictures were made (flash, lens type, etc), that would be great.

Panning and night photos

The top photo is using the camera's automatic white balance

This second shot is using manual white balance set for incandescent light


The top photo is auto exposure; the second is half a stop down

These shots are all in Oakland Kaiser using Manual Focus; the last is Oakland through the 8th floor windows of the hospital.

And then on Sunday, the farmers market and a nod to my obsession with basketball courts...
