Slashfood has just detailed the Michael Ray Foodblog. It is not really a blog - no comments/feedback, chronological organisation etc etc. But what the Michael Ray Foodblog offers though is a collection of interesting articles covering the capture of food photographs.
There is a set of images covering the set-up for a food shoot - more tree/less tree, pot plant/no pot plant. Each image has comments on the photographers thought process with each prop tweak or lighting change. The basics are covered well including lighting setups to reveal texture and the related subject of sheen and reflections.
On the same theme, Still Life With, (and this is a proper blog) offers plenty of tips on food photography tips. Recent posts cover selecting a tripod, HDR photography and Composition. I actually prefer this blog to the Michael Ray one.
