Photographer Dan Bannino is doing very interesting still lifes, all based on the known diets of famous peoples, past and present. They are all gorgeous, and well worth looking at, and in some cases pondering. At my age, I could do worse than paying more attention to Alvise Cornaro.
You can see and read more at The Creators Project, or just head over to Dan Bannino’s website, where you can see all of Still Diets, and Still Diets II.

i happened to be listening to Kodo (with the volume up at 11, albeit it still doesn’t reproduce the experience of seeing them live), which seemed appropriate for the OP, both the first image and the individual inspiring the second image.

I love doing reproductions of painters’ light. It’s really challenging but fun.
One of my other favorite photographers, Erwin Olaf, does a lot of weird lighting tricks.

Ah, instagram food porn at its most high-end artistic! ;)
The composition here too is quite impressive, looks time-consuming but well worth it!
