Food and Wine Photo Contest Winners

Nov 9 by Anita 12 Comments

Img_1486a_2

Food & Wine has selected the winners of their food photography contest, and they are gorgeous! I’m humbled to note that my entry was selected as one of 25 honorable mentions, and is part of the photo gallery on Food and Wine’s site. For someone with basically zero training in photography and who is pretty much learning on the (blogging) job, this is certainly a thrill!

Be sure to check out all the photos – they are all lovely and very inspiring – I’m off to keep improving my photography!

    Way to go! (If you have contacts at F&W, you might tell them the photoviewer seems to be acting up, I can only see the first photo, no matter what …)
