EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Tom Kelley in California back in 1992, offers a unique perspective on the unhealthy side of American cuisine. The image showcases a close-up view of French fries being meticulously weighed on an exquisite brass scale. The contrast between the golden hue of the crispy chips and the polished alloy surface creates a visually striking composition. Kelley's expert use of color photography brings out every detail and texture of these prepared potatoes, enticing viewers with their mouthwatering appeal. However, this seemingly innocent snack takes on a deeper meaning when considering its implications for our health. The absence of people in the frame allows us to focus solely on the subject at hand – weighing these indulgent treats. It serves as a stark reminder that excessive consumption of such foods can contribute to unhealthy living and weight-related issues. In this thought-provoking image, Kelley captures not only an everyday item but also raises questions about our eating habits and choices. As we gaze upon this photograph from his archive, it prompts us to reflect upon our own relationship with food and consider how we can make healthier decisions for ourselves and future generations.
