The top of the pizza 
Yep! It doesn’t always look like that

Post-torture-I-mean-personal-trainer-sesh sustenance. My PIC didn’t want the lonely Thai shrimp, so I volunteered 
That wasn’t enough, of course. 2-egg scramble with the first local corn & parsley.
That was too much, so I left a third for later. Maybe my PIC will have it.

I’ve posted about this ramen, which I have once a week. Salmon and shrimp in the sous-vide, various veggies, avocado, a splash of sesame oil, and pork broth from the foofy butcher shop. But I wanted to test my phones “food mode”. Can you tell which one is in food mode and which one is in auto?

Avocado in ramen? Interesting.
As for the food mode, my guess is the first one?
I forgot to record which one was which! But on another forum, someone noted that the blur on the Chinese and English labels in the top one indicated that it was the food mode photo. It’s supposed to slightly blur the non-food contents at the peripheries.
Avocado chunks are great in ramen, with the saltiness of the broth (from Red Boat fish sauce) a good complement.

I was going to guess the top one not because of the blurring but because of the increased color saturation.

That’s also a feature of food mode. But the bottom one has more accurate colors. There’s supposed to be a way to fiddle with the color temperature manually, and I’ll look for that next time.

I’d leave the color saturation be if it were me. It’s subtle but more appealing.

New phone camera?
No, same nine year old Android. On the other forum somebody mentioned “portrait mode” (not orientation) on their iPhone, and I decided to look for it. No portrait mode on this phone, but I did find the food mode.

Sometimes it achieves even more than that. I used to have a 95+ year-old neighbor living alone across the hall from me, and one day in the apartment lobby I heard her tell someone that the meals-on-wheels people did not show up. I happened to have some fresh soup on the stove, so I took her some; she appreciated it, of course.
Then a few weeks later I heard a timid knock on my door, and opened it, to see that neighbor standing there with blood pouring down from a head wound; the tv had fallen on her. My wife and I quickly got her back into her apartment, and settled into an armchair we dragged to the door. We called 911 and stayed there till the paramedics arrived. We were glad that she immediately thought about us, realizing we would help.

Portrait mode is @PedroPero’s absolute favorite setting

You might be confusing portrait mode with portrait orientation. @PedroPero posts in portrait, or vertical, orientation. Portrait mode is like food mode, another image manipulation.
Nah. One of my Fb WFD group members uses portrait mode all the time, all fuzzy in the background.
Peter “loves” it.
I very rarely use portrait mode, just regular mode with a few lighting adjustments. I’m excited to see the difference my new iPhone 16 will make.
