Cookies!



Andrea and her mother made delicious, life-giving cookies. Being a nerd, I took pictures of them rather than eating them.

This particular shot was taken with about a half-second exposure time, on a tripod. Lighting was provided by a single incandescent bulb over the stove. The full shot has another row of cookies at the front, but they were so out of focus it really screwed up the image, so I cropped them out. I'd have retried the image with the camera looking further up (bringing the in-focus cookie to the bottom third instead of the top third, where it originally was) but the way the table and everything was set up, I would have been looking past the cookies and into other stuff, and it would have looked kinda dumb. So there you go.
