Re: The "It's not valid" Thread



Taken a few years ago. Was tempted to recreate it for this month's theme, but decided to try something more original I think.

I don't usually like "beastie shots" but that's impressive the "predator" looks like a metal sculpture

Certainly does Simon, wonderfully appetising food pics, they would easily be good enough for any Sunday newspaper cooking supplement I think!

I was thinking of getting my royal to do this as well, but like yourself, decided on something a bit more original and, shall we say, more aesthetically pleasing

Alternative on TV Dinner Concept....

Hi Folks,

This was my original thinking for the TV Dinner Compo. entry but wasn't happy with this one either - also wasn't sure about rules etc. if "embedding" another picture - displayed on TV - even if crediting the original photographer - whose details and the photo licensing info are noted below the image.

Bought a new combination microwave yesterday so as I am a big Sunday roast fan I thought I would test it out today by doing the hardest thing I could think of.

a Yorkshire Pudding.

As soon as the wife had gone out I was on to it like a shot .. heres the outcome. :lol:
