Sandwich anyone?

Sandwich anyone? · 06:30 AM

Hi,

A bit bored today so thought id try and add a bit of drama to a cheese and pickle sandwich!! The subject in question has been lying on a plate for 2 days on a shelf (forgot about it!) and the mayo looks like it has turned to glue!

Unfortunately my tripod is in London so had fun tryin balance the camera on the back of a chair using the 12 sec timer.

Just had a look at DistortedVision's post of the cars, kinda makes me wonder where im going wrong with subject matter!

Nice Tom , I think it is art as it certainly has passed the editable stage! I looked and looked but could not see any obvious images of any religious icons in there. Perhaps if you let it sit for a few more days

Still if you mention something in your Ebay about the lack of the Virgin Mary in your listing I am sure someone will buy it !

Yeah - I concur on the subject matter issue. See, it's summer there in the Land of Oz. We, stuck in the northern hemisphere, are suffering the winter doldrums. Whilst he is out enjoying a spin around the block with his mates you are left inside to take pictures of long forgotten, half-eaten meals. Honestly Tom, it is a beautiful picture of a something disgusting! Obviously it wasn't that good to begin with or you would have finished it Friday.

Spring is coming, and very soon those of us in the top half of the planet can once again venture out and enjoy the day without fear of frostbite.

lol. It is pretty disgusting ans was surely hurled out the window after the shots were taken. I hope i didnt hit any ducks as it was as hard as a brick!

I was contemplating a macro of a cheese and onion crisp but thought that was going too far

Hear hear, roll on the summer!

Oh man....you took a bite out of it already!!
Now you have spoiled it.....

Prefer the color one as food never looked good to me in black and white.
Pity the poor person who is totally color blind.

I am indeed humbled. To take such an innocuous subject and get a photo that looks so good is real skill. Bravo, Tom, excellent lighting and composition, and a good chuckle at Dave's comment about the absence of religious icons!
