Moody Food - Mystical Kitchen Still Life

Atmospheric - "moody" - food photos owe their atmosphere and expression to the use of little light and even more shadows. There are several names for this type of photography: Dark&Moody, Mystic Light or Chiaroscuro, an Italian term that originally comes from painting and means "light-dark". It stands for a strong light-dark contrast like in the paintings of Caravaggio or Rembrandt, which creates an intense, often dramatic mood.
