Thought for the day: A question from Quora
Q: How can I take high-quality smartphone photos of your drinks?
A: Don’t try to take high-quality smartphone photos of your drinks. Instead look at the light going through the drinks, the color changes, the light coming through, the light patterns projected from light coming through the liquid. Move the drink around so that the triangle of the light, the drink and your eyes make different triangles. Remember what is most interesting. And photograph that.
Artistic vision is the key, technical details are nowhere near as important.
