Food Photography: What We Ate on the Road

What ended up on the table while travelling. In southern Poland: krokiety fried golden and stacked on a floral plate, blueberry cream cake with coffee, a pączek bitten open to the plum inside, and potato pancakes buried under goulash.

In Italy: carbonara with crisp guanciale on the Ligurian coast, tagliatelle under shaved black truffle and seared tuna with pear in Tuscany, and black squid ink pasta in Venice. Shot close, in whatever light the restaurant had.
