Since I've decided to keep an eye on my health, and keep my night photo sessions to minimum, every time I miss a daytime opportunity to shoot I will have to resort to doing practice by doing some odd photo experiments at home. This time I took a macro shot of some very salty Roquefort arbas on a sweet gingerbread.

Macro shots, especially those tasty blue cheese photos are particularly hard to come by. (I gather most of the issues could be moot if I just used a real camera.) Anyway, after tackling with the surprisingly difficult white balance on my Galaxy tablet, I finally got the shot, but now it looks plain ugly. Who in their right mind would eat cheese that looks like this?

I think I figured it out though. This blue cheese probably needs some time out of the fridge before it can be used. Otherwise it'll look very grainy. (I haven't tested this theory, but I guess it is right, as I've read that some cheeses need to be held some time in room temperature before serving.) Instead we need this cheese looking a bit more melted.

I will probably try photographing cheese again some future day, next time with an added grape I think.

But anyway, the gingerbread tasted excellent with the blue cheese. I'll get out for a pint now. See ya guys soon!
