Project 365: Day 13

I practiced taking portraits today because I complain frequently about taking pictures of people. They move. Food doesn’t. I took a slew of photographs of the Spicy Ninja (and a stealth shot of Cookie), and one or two came out alright (most of them were slightly blurry though!). Funny, though: I used the ‘portrait’ setting on my P&S (aka point&shoot), and when I took this photo, I didn’t change it back because I completely forgot. I just now realized that. And I think this photo came out really well – much better than many of my food photographs. Maybe I should start using the portrait setting for food? …nah. Hahaha.
Shopping, dinner, and dessert with the Spicy Ninja and Cookie (and them ganging up on me! hmph so mean!)… it was a great night. These are the kinds of nights that make extremely happy with who I am, where I am going, and the people with whom I have chosen to surround myself. Thanks guys

A portrait setting often opens up the aperture a bit wider to focus in on the foreground and blur out the background, which is definitely what happened the that most awesome shot of that dessert.
Yummy looking.
