The explanation behind these photographs is kind of a stretch, but I'm guessing that those of you who come here are somewhat interested in my little musings, so here goes. If you're reading this the day after it has been published, you know that it is Halloween. On Halloween, fun folks young and old alike get dressed up in various different costumes. A favourite costume through the ages has been to dress up as an alien. And who is the everyone's favourite alien? Why it's E.T. And what was E.T's favourite snack? Reese's Pieces. As a Halloween treat to all of you, I'm offering up some photographs of Reese's Pieces. Longtime visitors to this site know that photographing candy is something I enjoy. There are two reasons. First, they're
really colourful and can really grab your attention. Second, they make for a really tasty treat once your done shooting them. I like to shoot candy two different ways. With a large aperture which blurs out the background and again with a smaller aperture, keeping everything in focus. The first photograph was taken at f/16, 1/80sec, ISO 400 at 60mm and the second photograph was taken at f/8, 1/60sec, ISO 400 at 60mm. After all of you trick or treaters get home with bags filled up with tasty treats, give a look at what is inside. There might be something cool in there to snap a picture of before you eat it.
