For purposes of photographing food, I’ve been in search of some bowls and plates to use instead of our daily Target white glazed stone or matte blue IKEA pieces, for cheap..since PTvAvM.com is a low-budget operation.
A visit to the local mom & pop thrift store netted a matte dark gray plate. I wanted a dark color to allow contrast with vibrant colored foods.
Panko breaded fish sticks Curry.
The curry looks good. But I had red sauce in mind for such a plate:
Spinach & Cheese Ravioli topped over marinara sauce and melted mozzarella
The plate was $0.50 + tax. There was also a bowl (black, glossy), also for a price of a rapper.
Note to self: next time let grapes sit to room temperature to avoid condensation.
I would have preferred a matte bowl, seeing it would have less unwanted reflections, but I’ll make use of it.
