The Phoneography Challenge is issued on Monday morning for the entire week. The theme/themes for each week repeat monthly and can be found included in each week’s post. That means you can start agonizing over which photo/s to use early and set up your post at your leisure. If you take photos with a phone or tablet, please consider joining us. It’s fun, the people are great and you’ll see many beautiful photos.
For the Challenger’s Choice this week, I decided to take on the challenge of “Food” as my theme. There are many wonderful food photographers and I don’t claim to be one of them. But I do like to take photos of food I think people will enjoy hearing about and imagine eating. I played around a bit more with editing this week and am pleased with the results. What do you think? Which is most appealing to you (as a photo?)
These scone are adapted just slightly from “Moosewood Restaurant New Classics” recipe. They are delicious and distressingly healthy. Here’s the link to the post where I shared the recipe as well as a few others: https://sustainabilitea.wordpress.com/2012/07/28/dinner-and-scones/. Enjoy! And if you try them, let me know what you thought.

These two burgers are from Michael Symon’s “B Spot”, http://bspotburgers.com/. The top one, a portobella burger which, as I recall, was dubbed “Why?” (as in why would you order that when you could get a “real” burger) and came with free bacon. I say “was” because search as I might, I don’t see it on the menu any longer. Too bad! It was wonderful!

“Lola”, also from “B Spot”, is a burger with sunny side up egg, bacon, pickled red onions, cheddar cheese. My sister-in-law loved it, although it can be a bit messy!

What’s your choice? Either way, you won’t walk away hungry and if you still have room, there are scones for dessert.
Now go forth and take photos!
This, that and the other thing
