Fast food still life

Via Serious Eats: Roel Roscam Abbing created these awesome still-life-style photographs of deconstructed fast food.



They especially remind me of Luis Meléndez's still lifes, with the emphasis on the ingredients rather than the finished dish. There was an exhibition of Meléndez's work at the National Gallery of Art this summer, which inspired my own photographic take on it:

Still life with tomato salad ingredients


Not quite as impressive as Roel Roscam Abbing's photos, and the tomato salad I ended up making wasn't as tasty as a burger, either. Oh well.
