Better Pictures

I follow several food blogs, like this one, and then I also follow folks who like to photograph food, like this one. I’m a little upset they have such fabulous photographs of their foody exploits in the kitchen.

I’m jealous.

What I notice about both is that

a) they set up their shots (backgrounds, etc.) b) they’ve got light

So… I naturally am using this as an excuse to buy more camera equipment.

This will make more light, but I may also need something that can produce more close-up lighting.

For an upcoming trip, something wide-angle might be nice, too. But by Canon, or Sigma?

And finally, while in the throws of camera lust, I might mention the extra battery grip.

Or should I just concentrate on making better food, and not pictures?
