A Guizhou Feast: A Ricoh GR II Food Photography Experience
The humid Shenzhen air hung heavy, but inside the Guizhou restaurant, a cool reprieve beckoned. The Ricoh GR II, a familiar weight in my hand, felt ready. Sunlight dappled through the window, illuminating the furniture, the polished table, and the meticulously arranged tableware. It was a small, bustling restaurant, the murmur of conversations punctuated by the clatter of plates.
I settled at a cozy spot, observing a lone customer at the bar, engrossed in their phone. The aroma of spices, a complex blend of chili and fermented flavors, filled the air. Soon, a vibrant array of dishes arrived. First, a bowl of fiery fish soup, its ingredients glistening in the rich broth. Then, plates of stir-fried vegetables, each food item a testament to the freshness of the produce. The crisp textures and bold flavors were a revelation. More food kept coming – tender pork, succulent chicken, each dish a delightful exploration of Guizhou cuisine, all presented on beautiful serveware. It was a lunch that awakened every sense, captured in fleeting moments by the silent click of the GR II.
