It's so difficult to get good photos when you don't get home until after 6, and leave for work between 8 and 9 am, before the 'good sun' comes through the windows.  However, most of my windows are high up, and, we're on the wrong side of the building, as the good sun never hits us just right.  Lots of lamps! LOL<br> <br>Anyway, thanks for the offer, as I may end up taking you up on it if my photos don't improve to the point I want them at.  Granted, my Canon isn't a dSLR, but the G9 is about as close as you can get to one, so it's me and the natural light that eludes me, not the camera!<br> <br>PS- I was CRAVING your duck confit yesterday.  I couldn't stop thinking about that blog! :)]]></description><dc:creator>Lisa</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-07-15T10:25:35Z</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://quietcountrylife.com/2008/06/23/cathryns-tuscan-grill-cold-spring.aspx#comment-1195815"><title>Comment on Cathryn's Tuscan Grill, Cold Spring</title><link>http://quietcountrylife.com/2008/06/23/cathryns-tuscan-grill-cold-spring.aspx#comment-1195815</link><description><![CDATA[Lisa, this restaurant is easy to get to -- it is just a train ride away from NYC.&nbsp; Now, as for photography.&nbsp; I am using an old Canon PowerShot Digital ELPH set in Macro mode.&nbsp; I try to use natural light whenever possible, but when I have to -- I use the on-camera flash (it automatically adjusts in macro mode).&nbsp; <br><br>I'd be happy to help you with your food photograpy <img src="http://quietcountrylife.com/emoticons/smile.png" border="0" /><br>]]></description><dc:creator>Deb</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-07-15T08:34:48Z</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://quietcountrylife.com/2008/06/23/cathryns-tuscan-grill-cold-spring.aspx#comment-1190227"><title>Comment on Cathryn's Tuscan Grill, Cold Spring</title><link>http://quietcountrylife.com/2008/06/23/cathryns-tuscan-grill-cold-spring.aspx#comment-1190227</link><description><![CDATA[Oh Deb, I think I want to go there!  In fact, I think I want to live there! LOL  That said, as usual, your writing, photographs, and descriptions are top notch.  Did I ever ask what kind of camera you used?  I think that's been my question to everyone ever since I started taking an interest in food photography, considering I won't have to pay anyone to do it for me in the future, unless you do freebies for friends? :P]]></description><dc:creator>Lisa</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-07-15T08:30:49Z</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://quietcountrylife.com/2008/06/23/cathryns-tuscan-grill-cold-spring.aspx#comment-1160485"><title>Comment on Cathryn's Tuscan Grill, Cold Spring</title><link>http://quietcountrylife.com/2008/06/23/cathryns-tuscan-grill-cold-spring.aspx#comment-1160485</link><description><![CDATA[Looks like an awesome restaurant.
