I chose the hard cover image wrap version, published by Blurb. It arrived in my mailbox yesterday. What a fabulous book! Superb quality and superb photography.

Featuring 57 photographers from all over the globe, all profits from the sale of the book go to curesearch, a charity for support and research into childhood cancer.

Who’d have thought taking photos of food could be so hard! The first assinment is supposedly simple. Take a photo of something like an apple or an orange in natural light. Then take a photo of something with texture, like bread or a muffin. I found out that oranges have lots of texture and the stale loaf of bread I had in the cupboard didn’t look very appetizing. I fished out four rainbow cookies from a project I did a couple of weeks ago and shot those instead.
