I want to see your best dining shots!

Hi folks ~

Please note ... if at all possible please add the EXIF file (shutter/AV/ISO/flash no flash that kind of thing) to your photo so I can LEARN not just sit here in awe of the beauty of your photos LOL

We are leaving in a few weeks woohooo and this will be my first trip as a budding photographic hobbyist rather than just a mom snapping pics of my kids! One of my issues in the past has been character dining photos... YUCK they always come out bad for me! With much reading and studying I am learning how to fix this BUT I don't have any idea of lighting and what works in each place! I would love to see your dining photos plus the EXIF stuff so I can write it down as a good starting point when going in! I want to see ALL dining room photos but the ones I am most interested (where we have ADRS) are:
CRT breakfast
1900 breakfast and dinner
GF cafe
Harbor house
Ohana dinner
Biergarten
Tony's
Mama Melrose
Rose and Crown (lunch)
Les Ceillers
Sci Fi
Tusker house
Chef Mickeys

Thanks for taking the time to post your dining photos. It will really help me out a lot on the whole lighting VS blur!

I have nothing for what's on your list. The dining photo that always makes me smile is from Teppen Edo.
