I’ve done some food photography for local restaurants and I’ve always been interested in how food is presented so they look the best.
This is a traditional Taiwanese street food presented in a food court. it is short grain rice cooked with a basic meat sauce in a round container. In the old days the container was bamboo stalk, these days is a stainless cup. However, the presentation has remained simple and elegant. Who’d thought this is just simple street food?
Some of the Asian restaurants I’ve worked with should take notes.
Hong Kong is a place where everything moves fast, everyone looks busy, but everything is interesting to a visiting photographer. However, with all the tightly spaced buildings and skyscrapers, late afternoon light like this is rare in areas like Central, Causeway Bay, and Wan Chai. This seems to be a major complaint from many photographers who photographs Hong Kong.

I had 7 Hours to kill in Korea’s Incheon International Airport before I board my flight to Taipei. Normall, there are lots of shops and restaurants that will help pass the time. However, I landed at 4:30AM and I think I am one os 40 people in this huge terminal.
Since I was starting my vacation, I decided to take photos around the terminal.
Around 6 am, I saw the sun starting to peek, and I knew I had to wait for the perfect moment for the beautiful color to show, a plane to land, and a great point of view. It was worth the wait.
Shortly after this shot, the cafes opened for business and I was off for some much needed coffee.
