My BigFish Cook Book

Since last Thursday, is been few days already, haven’t been posting my recipes on blog… huh… getting frustrated now! I was so busying to figure out ways just to improve my blog. The problem with my Photo Shooting and Making nice template are giving me a big challenge.

As a new blogger, I think I get addicted over here! :)

Comments from friends and Foodiest …
Very much appreciate to every one here and I have made up my mind to improve my blog page template soon.

1. Why I want to set up a Blog?
This is really important for me to drive ahead. In the very beginning, I bet every one here are like me ~ wanted to set up a blog for SHARING, and Learn new things. Make a habit to note down anything which is actually interesting and warming your soul. But after some times, I found most of the thing that make me smiling inside out to share here are my Home Cooking and Recipes. I feel extremely proud with my own creations and also the modified recipes whenever it served on the dinning table.
I have found my answer even obvious after some times of carving. Opinions given by lot of friends, and I’m sure that I’m the lucky new blogger because I got to know some bloggers and added them into my MSN as well.
* Especially from Big Boy Oven (Sid), my friend who works in MPH Publisher (Lawrence), and also a designer he is my ex-schoolmate (Hakkison). Their opinions are really helping me a lot.

2. Food Blog – How should I present a food blog.
Eat out food or Home Cook Food? My blogging are mainly about my Home Cook Food and Recipes. Friends’ opinion, that I have to actually make a brand and a unique name which is easier for others to remember me.
* So I stick back to my lovely nickname as BigFish.

4. Template and Theme Color.
Keep the design clean and nice to read.
* Don’t use Eyes Killing Fonts and Color.
** This is the very first thing that I can do up to the stage now ~ to change my blog looks clean and comfortable.

5. Photo Shooting.
After College and quit my design job. Is been ages I never keep myself updating with the Photo Shooting matter. All my photos are just simply shooting without any side preparations most of times.
But since I started to add my first Food Blogger (CookingMonster) in my list, from there I started to know foodiest from all around the world. The very first blog which really gave me a strong impression is Taste Like Home (Cynthia’s blog). Her photos are all serving with well food styling. Another one is Big Boys Oven (Sid), and I been chatting online with him few times, and he was telling me about the dinning set like bowls and plates chosen are important for Food Photography too.

* I will have to get back to my skill from now, try to shoot more and practice more to make my dishes come out with nice lighting shoot.
* I started to buy nice dinning set to make my food present nicer.
* Might have to set up a small shooting area in my house with some simple lighting equipments.

I’m looking forward from every one here to give me more opinions and also comments. I will try to make my improvement step by step. I am looking forward to get my own domain~ when the “clicks” is there!

Please forgive me if you found my blog has some changes, because some times it will be “under construction”.

Looking forward to step ahead from decent to better…

~ Happy Blogging ~ Cheers!
