This, to me, is better Joan. Do you like it? In this shot the bread is definitely the POI and dominates the image. #1088731

Joan E. Hoffman February 24, 2009

Joan, will when your cookbook, "Phello Thyme Classics" or "Candid Concoctions" be available for purchase??? Love the adjustments. In the real cookbook that you were referring to, did the photos have borders? - Esther #7210365

Joan, do tell!!! Are you being published??? Whatever this image is for, I love it's warm sepia, it suits your composition beautifully!!! #7213250

Joan E. Hoffman February 25, 2009

LOL... Christine, No... hardly! I just got inspired by the photo's in Art Smiths, Back to the Table cookbook, and imitated the style in this! Thanks for your comment, I am rather fond of this image!

and Esther, just looked, and no, they didn't use any borders in the book! #7213615

This is great Joan! Love the clarity and detail of the toast (they look so good!) and the selective focus. #7214574

I don't have a "Studio"... or much space! We live in 400 sq ft 5th wheel. Doing "studio" work (or whatever you might call it) is a HUGE challenge, in a very small space. LOL. I was very happy when these two shots got EP's!! #7238857
