I haven't taken photos in two days. Last night, after a long day, while cooking dinner, the colors of the food struck me as pretty, so I whipped out ye olde camera.

This pot - which I love - has a glass lid. The large photo was taken through the lid and between the steam portions.

The small photo is obviously the whole pot. The contents are multi-grain pasta with flax, carrots, broccoli, soy beans and corn kernels.

I often make those kind of throw everything in one pot dishes. Put some pepper and parmesan on top and voila - dinner.

Here's a BW version of the steam/veggies that I'm going to try to use as a filter sometime. Feel free to do the same if you want.

I like the picture within the picture -- an interesting variation on the typical diptych.

Steam-induced blur. Cool idea.

I also liked the beans as the overlay.

Clever to use the steam to create DOF! Though not a "pictures of food" person, I do like the colors of this - and I bet it will make an interesting texture as well!

Looks delicious.
Nice composition. I like that point of sharpness between all the steam.

Steam could be the latest texture overlay ;)
