These two photos were based on the concept and process of making applesauce and getting it from red fruit to jar to bowl. Instead of a succession of start-to-finish pictures, I like to think that I juxtaposed the start and the finish in a way that makes you think. Can't you imagine a kitchen-clumsy reader stumbling across these images in a magazine and relating to them completely?
The variations in the jar's glass paired with the soft window light looked cool, and the apple tipped to the side gave some visual interest that an upright fruit couldn't have accomplished. Sound silly? Sure, but I had to think about these things.
I took a billion pictures of this fruit, bowl and spoon trio. Most of the images looked good, even the typical dish-of-food-shot-at-a-45 degree angle. But that's what it was: typical. So I balanced myself on a roommate's bed frame to get above the window sill on which the composed threesome perched. Thought it made for a well-lit, clean and simple picture.
