well, hello, gorgeous! by summerfield

well, hello, gorgeous!

or portrait of the "red velvet cupcake with cream cheese topping" as my new bff

you wonder how this little beauty is still not devoured yet. this is one of the leftovers from last night's set up. just as well, the topping of the regular cupcake i bought today for today's shoot collapsed. still edible but no shape or personality.

i'm done with the patisserie next door. i'm now waiting for them to go out of business. so the 'prairie girl bakery' is now my new haunt.

-o0o-

this is the 'flash of red february' challenge. for rules (or guidance let's call it) here's the link: http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/16115/flash-of-red-february you get to photograph in black and white for the whole month with the exception of the 14th when you can do selective colouring of red; by the end of the month your calendar will look awesome!

once again, i'm finding myself playing catch-up with everyone's albums. busy at the office and i notice everyday that i'm getting too old for the kind of job i do. so thank you, ladies and gents, for your kind views and comments; all are appreciated. i shall catch up on yours tomorrow when we come back from visiting the grands.

sooc; the camera is set in monochrome for the month.

This would look nice on the wall at your new bff shop, it is beautifully shot

Even colorless I can tell this is not tasteless. Yummy picture!

great idea for the theme!!!

Yum! I have a couple of cupcakes left over from my last bake-a-thon, mostly because believe it or not there is a limit to how many cupcakes a girl can eat in one day! Mine didn't look this pretty though (I get bored with the topping and just smear it on!). Gorgeous bokeh in your pic make your cake look like a star!

@northy - prairie girl cupcakes!
February 5th, 2013  
@summerfield yeah... scrumptious they are! and they come in mini sizes which means, of course, that you can at 3 of them for zero calories... right? ;p
February 5th, 2013  
@northy - er...no! i had half a dozen minis and didn't add up to any calories at all. it's calorie-less so you can have as many half-a-dozen as you want. bwahahahaha! but seriously.

Looks scrummy! But I don't think you're done with the patisserie. Some of those chocolate ones were worth having another.
February 5th, 2013  
oh scrumptious!!!! Beautifully shot!

Wonderful composition - looks delicious.

OMG! thought I'd look at all your photos...then realized it's not just a rabbit hole but a sink hole and I'd never get to bed before 3! I'd love to sit and read everything! HOWEVER...I was up until after 3 this morning and woke after 4 hours, having "worked out photography situations" all night! Best I get to bed soon as it's Market Day in the morning...a great place to meet up with friends! (So NOT California!)
