Eat your Brussels Sprouts!

My wife made these for dinner the other night and asked me to record the moment for posterity. They were tasty!

I want to eat that.

Wait,...didn't I see that image in a culinary magazine? I kid! And what I mean is it SHOULD be in a culinary mag. Very nice shot, Darren.

 

[Darren Bradley]

Ha! I don't actually have much of a clue what I'm doing, food photography-wise, and I don't have the lighting kit and other things the pros use. But I just try to imitate the style of photos you see in food magazines and hope it works out.

They look good but I still wouldn't eat them. I've been told that Brussels have a chemical in that only some people can taste and it would seem I am one of those people.

 

[Pete Askew]

Nice shot Darren and a pretty tasty looking treat too.

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Yummy!! Is that parmesan cheese on there too..... Mmmm, good idea to illuminate that 'chemical' for you Paul? Lol

 

[Darren Bradley]

Yes, these are crispy brussel sprouts with a balsamic-port reduction, bacon, and shaved parmesan cheese. I'm not a fan of brussel sprouts usually, either, but there are great.

Very stylish - really hitting the spot - would look at home in many a top foody magazine

Still wouldn't eat them though - I hate 'em with a passion

I love em You should ask your better half to put the recipe on here so we can all have a go, great shot to & would give many a PRO food photographer a run for their money.
