I’ve been talking about creating photo series and tonight I started a new one, capturing the life and death of…
a single marshmallow…by roasting.
Roasting marshmallows brings back such warm childhood memories. I seriously have refined the art of browning the perfect marshmallow. Golden brown on all sides, melted all the way through to the center. (Okay, I admit it. I went off my mostly raw, vegan eating style for this event. Can you blame me?)
Others are not quite as artful and like to eat the charred remains of a marshmallow straight out of the fire. That’s what I captured in this series of images. Pretty amazing to see the marshmallow engulfed in fire.
When was the last time you roasted marshmallows? Are you a golden brown or charred marshmallow type?
Specs: Nikon D50, 50 mm lens, 1/100 @ f /2.8, ISO 800. Processed in Lightroom to sharpen slightly. No need for other processing, which is always a bonus!
