Eat lots of veggies (capsicum refracted in this image), and drink water... preferably more than a drop!!
I've been very busy the past two weeks, but I missed playing with textures. And since today I received my new Sigma 24-70 2.8, I had to try it out...
I must confess I love doing still life, because you can go crazy with the textures, the possibilities are limitless.

"21 April 2021 with DA21"
With a Raynox 150 Macro fitted, the DA21's MFD is reduced to about 4cm. This image was taken about 6cm from the subject, and the image was cropped slightly to exclude the vignetted corners.

A red bell pepper (or red capsicum) halved with a chicken egg in each half, roasted in the oven. Delicious and healthy cooking for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Or evening meal.

We both made this tonight. I artistically arranged the salad while Octo made and cooked the pork patties... This was perfect as it was, and still is a hot day / night.... It reached (35) Degrees Celsius, and its about (30) Degrees Celsius now......
This was made by Octo for dinner tonight..... It was tasty and very yummy... It was a little hot as we had to get the hot chilli, and the chicken thigh fillets were cooked perfectly... Awesome meal all round!
who says cooking is difficult? I think our older generation make it sound like a rocket science ... a month or so into regular cooking ~ woah you start making real good stuff =)
*Proudly Nods*

Bell pepper, also known as sweet pepper or a pepper (in the United Kingdom) and capsicum (in India, Australia and New Zealand), is a cultivar group of the species capsicum annuum.
The misleading name "pepper" was given by Christopher Columbus upon bringing the plant back to Europe. At that time peppercorns, the fruit of Piper nigrum, an unrelated plant originating from India, was a highly prized condiment; the name "pepper" was at that time applied in Europe to all known spices with a hot and pungent taste and so naturally extended to the newly discovered Capsicum genus. The most commonly used alternative name of the plant family, "chile", is of mexican origin, from the Nahuatl word chilli or xilli. Bell peppers are botanically fruits, but are generally considered in culinary contexts to be vegetables.
This recipe is from melbedgood, you can find it at her site. Never tried halloumi before, turned out great, those slices of halloumi are very tasty pan-fried..

Not a bad paella if I do say so myself.
I cheated with turmeric and arborio rice instead of saffron and calasparra rice :)

My friend Adam let me borrow his 50mm Macro lens today. I struggle to get really close to objects with my normal 50mm f1.8 lens so this has been a complete revelation and is now on my shopping list so if anyone has to sell, please let me know.

Capsicum is a genus of flowering plants in the nightshade family Solanaceae. Its species are native to the Americas where they have been cultivated for thousands of years. In modern times, it is cultivated worldwide, and has become a key element in many regional cuisines. In addition to use as spices and food vegetables, capsicum has also found use in medicines.
The fruit of Capsicum plants have a variety of names depending on place and type. The piquant (spicy) variety are commonly called chili peppers, or simply "chilies". The large mild form is called red pepper, green pepper or bell pepper in North America, peppers in Britain, and New Zealand, and typically just "capsicum" in Australia, and India. The fruit is called paprika in some other countries (although paprika can also refer to the powdered spice made from various capsicum fruit). [from Wikipedia]
