I don't see that much food in Still Life, though I could just be missing it... if it's not overflowing I don't really see a need :)

Well, already after 5 hours, I think the result of the poll is fairly clear :) thanks everybody who took part in it.

Are you kidding? with Big Casino Buffets and food presentations at banquets and restaurants, it would be very applicable...

Even fast food needs good pictures...

It's close up photography requiring a substantial depth of field for good presentation...while other dishes require a nice bokeh...color and lighting is difficult and requires discussion too.

I'm for it...

I didn't even know we had a restaurant here where we could go to on our browsing breaks.:D:D

I think the numbers are speaking for themselves.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

:) Yep, I know that. Just thought it was a fair question for a poll, so I could find out what people think :)
