Muffin mix is lumpy, non-photogenic, and pretty much unattractive.
(my sincerest apologies to the muffin man, but you know it is true.)
It barely warrants dipping your finger into for a sample.
Brownie batter - yes.
Cookie batter - yes!
Even cake batter - err, I guess.
But never muffin batter.
I had hoped to venture over into a little food photography, but I always tend to remember taking pictures AFTER the stuff has been mixed and pretty much after it has been baked/cooked/or nuked. The reality of these pictures are that they are much the same as flowers.
But at least it is not bird/cat/flower, and that is a positive step to climbing out of my rut.
Trying to take a page out of Deanna's book of looking at the positive.
Giggling at your commentary, but salivating for those muffins....warm with butter melting. YUM! And no, they are not like flowers, I don't eat flowers, but I have no problem eating delicious muffins.
ReplyDeleteOh Nicki, I can always guarantee on you to make me laugh! Yes I actually do agree that my recipe does put yours to shame but oh well. The ones I made are actually pretty healthy so you could make them and eat them! Which you should totally do.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I actually did try my batter...it wasn't very good so that proves your point!
It looks delicious! I'm having coffee at the moment and your muffin certainly looks mouth-watering.
ReplyDeleteI think that first shot is definitely ad worthy!
Yummy - a delectable photo!
ReplyDeleteOh, that first photo is so scrumptious looking! You can't eat a flower. So these are different!
ReplyDeleteThese look delicious.
ReplyDeletehappy sigh!!!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmmmmmuffins :) Great shots!
ReplyDeleteMmmm muffins - I'll have one please, with a cup of tea. I've been trying to branch out from nature photography - into dishes and table settings - it is a stretch for me - but I'm trying. The muffins look terrific. I usually forget to photograph food until it is all gone.
