For @Photogames' Everyday Rituals Assignment - Cooking My Family's Organic Dinner Tonight

in food •  7 years ago 

I love to participate in the @photogames's games, contests, and assignments. One of the current games is Everyday Rituals. I don't usually shoot my meals but cooking is one of those things that I enjoy doing just about every day. Preparing a delicious and nutritious organic dinner for my wife and my son @enak makes me happy. I went big tonight so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to enter the photo assignment (the first photo is the entry).

Tonight's meal was rib steak marinated in balsamic vinegar and rib eye seasoning, with gorgonzola cheese on top. Onions and mushrooms with the same marinade, potato with sour cream, asparagus, and tomato. All cooked on the BBQ, except the tomatoes. Yes, it was as tasty as it looks!!!

Both of these images were shot with a Canon 5Dsr and a 24-105mm lens, handheld. The top photo was at ISO 6400, shutter speed of 1/100 second, and an aperture of f4. The bottom photos was at ISO 1250, shutter speed of 1/100 second, and an aperture of f4.5. Both shots had a wide aperture because I wanted a shallow depth of field so the foreground and background would have a soft focus.

Great food photography. More is always better. My Spring has finally arrived, so I hope to get some grilling shots that come close to yours

Thank you @gringalicious!!! If you mean more photos, got it, next time... If you mean more food, I don't think my belly could have handled another bite, haha! Cheers to spring! The snow has been melting fast here and my veggie garden beds are finally ready for seeds- this weekend's plans. I look forward to seeing your grilling posts!

That’s a great point by @gringalicious! She always has tons of photos - which is part of what makes her posts so rich and full of energy.

Thank you to both of you @coruscate and @gringalicious! I truly appreciate the advice and I took a bunch of photos today for my "prepping the veggie garden" post. Cheers to eating great food!!!

Congrats, you made the #steemitminute for today!

Thank you @reseller!!!

YUMM!!! I actually cooked a really similar dinner last night! I just had roasted parsnips instead of potato, and broccoli instead of asparagus. Had a delightful ribeye with roasted onions and mushrooms as well though! 😃

Great shots as always, these photos are fantastic!

Nice @coruscate! Sounds like you know how to eat well too! I actually meant to grab ribeye from out little organic market but I accidentally grabbed the rib steak, haha! Oh well, it was still delicious.

Man, that looks so good!

Oh, I can assure you it was @reseller, haha! Cheers!

All I can say is, I'm a vegetarian since I was born and even to me this looks delicious!!!! I want a husband that cooks like that hahaha. Great entry scott!!!!

Thank you @gabyoraa! Haha, yeah don't hang out at my house, you'd be an omnivore in no time... I may do all the cooking but I'm pretty lucky that my wife does all the dishes. Don't tell her but I got the better deal on that one ;)

i do think you got the better deal on that one :D

Haha, yes indeed!

I just set my goals for this weekend, something like this together with a beer... :)
Btw, have you ever tried wild asparagus?

I hope you succeed in your weekend goals @nkera! And no I have not tried wild asparagus. Now I have a goal to achieve too. Haha! Cheers!

Haha, good to share motivation around :)

Yup! :)

Yummm! And that looks like an awesome patio!

Oh, it was indeed yum @alevaskye! And yeah, I'm pretty fortunate to live where I live. I grew up in LA but ran away with the family to this house about 16 years ago. Although it often looks like this in the winter so it's not always easy to live or BBQ here:

This looks delicious!!! Better than any restaurant!!

Oh it was! And I so agree, I would have to pay a ton for a meal like this at a restaurant. Cheers!
