Project 52 - 4 - 37 Home - Dinner/Cooking
Posted By: photolady95, 06-18-2012, 06:50 PM

Theme for this week 37 - Home - Dinner/Cooking.


Time Frame: pictures for Week 37 are to be taken between June 17 through June 24, 2012.

PROJECT 52 - 4

Following are the Rules and Weekly Projects for year 4. Thanks goes to Dan (DanLoc78) for getting this going, and to Rob (Mithrandir) for hosting year 3.

Rules :
1. Anyone and everyone who is interested is eligible. The goal continues to be
to have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques with fellow
Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-4 thread for the week. Explain what
motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color
saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post
black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
6. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is
active to be eligible for judging.
7. Any picture taken within the period of P52-4 is acceptable for the two “Seasonal” competitions – Projects 52-3-51 & 52!1

Unless we get some entries in this Project 52 this week, I think this is the last one I'll create. I have found over the last few Project 52's, that interest is lagging. There are 16 more weeks to the end for this year's Project 52. Also, though I can't speak for Rense, he saw this lack of interest too and one of the reasons may be why he asked if anyone else wanted to be moderator.

Stopped working on it, so here's my entry. Avocado season in full swing here. I love them and mostly will eat one a day, seeing that they are so good for you.

One's better than none....Noel, do these grow where you can pick them? I too love Avocados, and my brother has a tree in his backyard but I haven't asked if they're ready yet. I should....eh.

Mar, some members of my congregation have Avocado trees in their yards, and I guess I'd be able to pick some there, accept they tell me their neighbours have raided their tree, so that takes care of that idea Some friends of mine also stay (as tenants) in places where there are Avocado trees, but have not had chance to see them of late. I usually buy mine as part of my weekend shopping.
I thought Avo's are winter fruits? Or is it a vegetable? If it is winter, and if your brother's tree has any, they will be very small. But then again, these days, with genetically modified foods, avo's can be had anytime of the year. They're still mostly winter fruits, much like oranges, around here. If you ever have a look at a map of South Africa, the northern and north eastern part produce the best avo's, and by that I mean the biggest though I have picked some in the eastern and south eastern parts of our country, mostly the "butter" variety. I'm about to go and have that avo for dinner, together with what's left over of my cottage Pie I made for lunch! Yummy!

I'm sure some more entries will be forthcoming. I would be a pity if this challenge were to end. It is so interesting and challenging too. Now, if we can only get these guys and girls to stop eating their food and take a photo first, we'd be pumping.
Come'n Pentaxians. Show me a Hamburger!

Making it in under the wire this time. Busy week. Too hot to cook, so dinner on many days was...

Cold Couscous Salad and Sides




Sorry no burger, Noel!

With the extra time allowed, I will try to post something. It is just so hard to take time for a picture when the food is ready.

I'm new at these contests, but they are great motivation. I'll get something here soon.
