Manna Dey Photo Download

New York-based food photographer Lou Manna discusses shooting trends: "The old style of photographing food involved lots of props, edge-to-edge sharpness, dramatic, shadowy light and was shot from a high angle. On the other hand, today's food photography is about brighter, less-contrasty lighting, shallow depth of field, less food and fewer props." He's a great authority on this, as one who's photographed delectable dishes for over 28 years for publications like Bon Appetit, Gourmet, Wine Enthusiast, and The New York Times, as well as working with such renowned chefs as Michael Lomonaco, Pierre Franey, Emeril Lagasse, and Jacques Torres. His work also appears in over 30 cookbooks, including Dessert Circus, The Four Star Kitchen, and Grilling for Dummies.

Engineering to Photojournalism

He recounts one of his fondest memories at the age of eight, "When I took pictures of a beautiful tree covered with snow with my Brownie camera." Manna grew up in Brooklyn, New York, where he took photography classes, became president of the photo club, and shot pictures for the yearbook at Xaverian Catholic High School. "I liked the whole process of taking pictures," he recalls. In addition to photography, he studied video, filmmaking, art history, and had a passion for languages.

After high school, Manna attended Stony Brook University, where he majored in electrical engineering and studied photography as a sideline. He became staff photographer and photo editor of Statesman, the school newspaper, as well as facilities manager for the school's darkroom. "I amassed quite a portfolio from my newspaper pictures," he says. During his first year of college, he started shooting for local papers like Smithtown News and Three Village Herald. "This is what changed my mind--and my major--to communications." Although he made "literally $5 per picture," he got paid for something he loved to do. In those days, he says, he hardly got any sleep as he worked in the darkroom at night, then delivered the resulting prints to various newspapers and took classes by day.

After graduating in 1976, Manna discovered that engineering jobs were difficult to come by, and "the idea of being behind a desk designing circuit boards didn't appeal to me. I love people." He took his portfolio around to various publications, and eventually showed his images to the photo editor of The New York Times. According to Manna, he was in the right place at the right time as this newspaper was changing from being a more-literary journal, and they loved his work. "I walked out of there with my first assignment--to photograph a 100-year-old man playing a bagpipe on the beach with his dog by his side." As time went on, he became what was known as a "personality photographer" at the paper.

One assignment involved taking pictures at a little girl's funeral. "I had tears in my eyes from grief as I was shooting the photos--I felt the moment," he recalls. One of these images appeared on the front page of The New York Times. Richard Avedon called the newspaper and commented that it was the best front page shot he had ever seen, and requested a signed print from Manna.

What is a blue manna crab? The blue manna crab (Portunus pelagicus) is the only ten-legged crustacean found around the entire Australian continent. Although this species is commonly known as the blue manna or blue swimmer crab, the blue colouring is found only in the male. The female is sandy brown, but both females and males have extensive white markings. It may live for up to three years.

Where does it live? As well as being found in the muddy floors or estuaries and in coastal waters throughout Australia, the blue manna crab is also found in East Africa, through the Indopacific islands to Japan and Tahiti.

Breeding and caring for young: While the female blue manna mates only once a year, she has an amazing reproductive output. At a given time she may lay up to two million eggs. In WA the peak spawning period is in January and February. At this time, the female will leave the estuaries and rivers to release the eggs in the open ocean, a strategy which may help to broaden the distribution of the species. Mortality of these eggs is extremely high and less than one per cent will survive to make their way back to shallow coastal waters and rivers.

How you can protect the blue manna crab: People may catch and eat blue manna crabs, but there are daily bag limits and minimum legal sizes and all females carrying eggs must be thrown back into the water while they are still alive. Contact the relevant fisheies department for the latest rules and regulations. Follow a few common sense rules and blue manna crabs will be here to stay.

Amid an acrimonious exchange between the Congress and the BJP over Rahul Gandhi's statements in London, Nagaland minister Temjen Imna Along commented on a post made by the official handle of the Congress. 'Stand up for what you believe in, even if it means you stand alone' -- the post with a photo of Rahul Gandhi says. In the photo, Rahul Gandhi can be seen in a suit with his hands in the pockets, posing for the photo as he attended an interactive session at the Chatham House in London. Nagaland BJP chief Along commented on the photo: "One has to accept that the photo is nice. Confidence and pose are next level." On social media, Temjen is known for his witty comments. As the BJP leader remarked about Rahul Gandhi and there was nothing scornful in it, it was an amusing moment for many social media users. Later, the minister made another post implying that the caption with the photo was not original. 006ab0faaa
