(Day 230) - Rose Scoop

I'll take a double scoop with extra petals. You know, on second thought, this might not taste very good. Haha!

I'm actually a huge fan of photos taken at a "top-down" perspective. There's this neat and organized look that this angle invokes that I really like.

Therefore, I'm going to shoot everything from a "top-down" perspective this month. And I'm not done with the puns either, I'll call this month "Toptober"! :D :D :D

[Taffy]

This will be an interesting new shift. It lends itself to your strength in setting up studio shots.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Well, this will be fun to see. You actually can eat rose petals- some folks put them in salads or sandwiches. They have a very interesting taste!

@olivetreeann - Oh wow really? People actually eat them? Maybe this will taste better than I thought! Thanks for the insight Ann!

[Chris Johnson]

@taffy - Thank you Taffy! Happy to know I have a strength in studio photos. This project has really helped me to see what I can do well in photography.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Had to track a recipe down for you- just in case you ever want to try it! I have had them, and they actually do taste good!

Great pov and shot.

@olivetreeann - Thanks for the recipes Ann! I've never heard of rose petal sandwiches before! I'm not a big cream cheese eater but these look good! I'll have to give it a try one day!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@cjphoto I don't know maybe you could substitute a thick whipped cream instead.

[Chris Johnson]

@olivetreeann - That's a good idea! I'll try it both ways! :)
