Food craft always attracts my attention. Perhaps it's the burst of light, the flash of flame, the sizzle and crackle of ingredients on hot grills, or the voices of chefs calling to their wait staff, "Broccoli Rabe on 12, Sea Bass on 28...lets go people! It's hot!"
I'll turn my lens towards such action any night of the week. Give me access to a kitchen and I'll take on the heat... What's that expression, "If you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen"? Truth is, I usually can't tolerate high temperatures, but if my camera is in hand and a working scene unfolds, I won't feel the heat or cold or even the wind and rain. Capturing the moment seems to numb such pain, and connecting with my surroundings becomes all that matters.
Bon appetite!
