DPReview, my “go-to” site for camera reviews has recently written an article about Food Photography. They go over the basics, lighting, equipment and composition. It’s a great article for those looking into taking some shots of “food porn”.

GoJee is a site where you can find delicious new recipes. It’s simple site that is very focused on great images of food. It does require signup (I wish it would not). It aggregates recipes from a lot of blogs and writers. Great presentation!

Thanks Sue for the suggestion!
