Food-Photo Machine No.1

amortization over 3 years of core usage

The machine, that started my whole documentation-obsession at the end of year 2005. I had taken more than 100.000 photos by it. Now it's temporarly out of order. /"zoom error"/. You can see the All food that iwan ate on January, 2008 picture that i captured with this machine also.

I got this camera as a present for Christmas, 2005 by my mother, mAgi.

Food-Photo Problematics #1

The same is not the same

The same sandwich is on the left and right, but it looks absolutely different when it's opened !

Some ingredients are not visible on the picture, unless i put down the top of the bun-s. Okay, but that's not the typical way that i eat them. So,i have to choose whether i show which ingredients the sandwich consists (on the right), or just show the exact looking of the sandwich that i eat (left side). Both the left and right side gives us important information... but about two different things, which ain't exist at the same time! So i cannot compress all the information* into one picture. This is a major problem ! What is the correct solution?! I'm afraid, I have several other problems like this one..

*: 'Informative food-documentation': might be the definition of the action, what i do every time, before i eat something.
I try to document my foods on the most logical way, by the way it's not an easy business to keep the reality unchanged in some extreme situations. There are several other problems, which i meet oftenly, during my food-document project.

8 Basic Steps

The illustration shows what i exactly have to do before my mealtimes. This is the general way i do it. I will confer extreme precedences later, in the incoming posts. (Don't ?)Try this at home!

Piros 50 A

Distance walked : 52,5 km (according to my GPS results)
Stage Time : 10hours 47min
Start: 07:05am
Finish: 17:52pm
Sleep time before hiking : 2hour 50min

"Piros 50 A" was the name of this well organized hiking on Saturday. It means: 50km long A-stage. "A" means the first 50km of the total 85km route. It was the 6th official performance-hiking in my life. The first one was the same like this, on 29th of October, 2005.The last one was on the 5th of April, 2008 and 50km long one also. My hiking-mate was Álmos, the younger brother of Áron (I.R.O.N) my greatest architect friend, who is in Poland now. So that we named our challenge: "Iron memorial tour". This time we got perfect weather, which means the rain rained only when i wanted it. I started with empty stomach, and felt myself close to have a "black screen" in any moment. Fortunately i didn't Knocked out before time, so we reached Dömös village (Checkpoint at halfway [30km]) at noon. I ate two sandwiches that the organisers gave me. (it is in the fee that we paid at the start of the tour). That tuned me up, and tossed me towards the 35km Checkpoint on the second highest hill of Hungary, the Dobogókő hilltop with brilliant panorama(pictures above and below). There i implanted two fresh young bananas with a beer and wanted to stay there forever %). Soon we started to go down the last 15km-s. (to be continued..)
