Star chef
David Chang is causing a stir in the food-blog world. If you manage to get a reservation at his new restaurant
Momofuku Ko, be prepared to leave your camera at home. According to Chang's new

If the thought of Tom Colicchio's "Braised Monkfish with Pork Belly, Leeks and Cabbage" gets you all hot and steamy — and no "braised monkfish" is not a euphemism for anything — then you may be interested in this
online auction. The show is called "Photography for Philanthropy" and it features photographs of food from star chefs such as Tom Colicchio, Eric Ripert, Daniel Boulud, Jean Georges Vongerichten, and Lydia Bastianich. They've all worked with famed photographer Diana DeLucia, who has captured their masterpieces with her lens.

I consider myself an ok food photographer, one whose photos get better with every shot, but one who still has much to learn. Looks like I shouldn't just be taking tips from
other food photographers, but from fashion photographers as well! Yesterday
FabSugar introduced me to my new favorite fashion photographer,
Miles Aldridge, who took these lush, delicious snapshots for a recent edition of the
New York Times Magazine.
Even though I've actually thought I could OD on gummi bears, the phrase "death by gummi bears" sounds a bit ridiculous. However artist Daniela Edburg has made it look amazing, don't you think? In her series
Drop Dead Gorgeous, Edburg features beautiful girls (all of whom are her friends, not professional models) dying from food related obsessions.
