meal photography

Stephen Shore photographed every meal (as well as everything else) on his road trips across America in the 1970s, comprising the series Uncommon Surfaces, and like a lot of nerdy photographers whenever I eat out I usually take a photo of the food, too.  But a nine year old schoolkid in Scotland, Martha Payne, has been banned from taking photos of her school meals after her daily blog received over two million hits.

* Update: ban lifted in response to huge support for Martha.
