Ah, food.  I do enjoy eating food, but I realized I really do not like taking food images.  I lack imagination in this department.   So yes this months theme is {Food} and honestly I am stretching myself here just trying to find 6 images on the topic {Food}.

Recently my son, partnered up with a pastor and 2 other folk to start a new church in a nearby area, so I have been going down to the church on Sundays to help out with the creative side of things doing photographs.  The church wants you to feel welcome and so there is always coffee and something edible.  This particular day it was donuts.  Further down you will see some pastries.  To be honest – I was happy to photograph them but I am doing my best to stay away from these tempting delights.

Banquets are a fun place to photograph food, and this green starter was amazing.  Cucumber strips to form a bowl, with greens and walnuts and roasted onion, and a tiny bit of blue cheese really tasted good.

Here are the very edible pastries that you can find at the new church.

Another banquet plate.  Chicken seems to be the go-to for banquets.  This particular meal was lemon chicken with capers, roasted baby potatoes and fingerling vegetables.  For chicken it was definitely pleasing to the taste buds.

This was my attempt at photographing my Strawberry Walnut Salad with a balsamic vinaigrette and honey dressing. I had planned to shoot individually and then the end result.   Clearly the strawberries were as creative as I could get.

Last in line was this hamburger taken at my daughters wedding.  They opted for a beach lunch with the choices of calamari and wings as the starters, a spicy chicken flatbread, salmon on a bed of rice with asparagus, or a beef burger with fries.  Dessert was a key lime pie.  The food was great and I was glad I did not have to do anything other than pay the bill.

So now that I have successfully managed to make myself hungry, I need to go and have some dinner.  Tonight’s menu with a vegetable pasta sauce and rice.  Hits the hungry spot 🙂
