Fresh ingredients from the garden are a wonderful gift from nature and it inspires the desire to shoot in a new style.
Herbs are always attractive to grow in the garden. It's uplifting in itself. Plus the benefits for food supplies in the kitchen. What are your favorite herbs?
In the garden, I choose to grow herbs and spices that are most widely used to make herbal foods and drinks. Because it will be very useful when the body is not fit and requires certain intakes that contain these herbs and spices.
The great thing is, we can get the herbs fresh directly from the trees in the garden when they are ready to be harvested. Although indeed to be able to get plants that are ready to harvest, it requires a lot of hard work.
An Abundance of Ginger From Garden
I love making ginger tea, ginger soup, and more. Ginger helps boost immunity and is a natural treatment when I have a cold.
I also use ginger to make the porridge. One of them is for the ingredients to make Mung Bean Porridge, whose recipe I have posted on HIVE.
That's why there is a lot of ginger around my house and also my sister's house. Our family often uses ginger to make ginger tea, with palm sugar. It's like a traditional recipe passed down in Indonesian families.
We also occasionally make coffee with ginger to add a different coffee sensation.
From these growing media, I, my family members, or even my neighbors can take as much ginger as we need. After harvesting the required amount of ginger, we planted the ginger tree again, for the ginger tree, leaving a few tubers, which were pulled out during the harvest process.
I photographed the gingers that I had harvested against the sky background. Luckily for me, the day was clear and it created a beautiful sky.
These gingers are ready to make delicious ginger tea, to maintain endurance, as well as a friend to relax at night.
Exploring Ginger Photography Using a Mirror
I really like photographing the sky. I like to involve lots of skies for food/drink shots, etc.
This time I tried to capture the sky using a mirror. I managed to get different portraits of the sky, adjusted to the position of the mirror itself.
I did a photoshoot in a field behind the house. Then I brought the ginger object. The results did not disappoint.
I'm happy to explore photography with a mirror this time. I love the results! What do you think? Do you like the results?
In addition to using ginger as a shooting object, I also used a cup of ginger tea. The results from shooting a cup of ginger tea are not optimal in my opinion, because I can't display the ginger slices in the ginger tea naturally without a spoon. Still need more practice. But at least, I've tried.
That was about ginger in my family garden and my activity exploring photos in a new style, using a mirror. It was a sunny day, and full of new vibes. Thank you for always taking the time to read my blog.
