Even if you think you take crappy pictures, please join in. Those of you just reading the forum and not posting, this is your chance to join in and show off.

I guess you're not alone Matt...everyone seems to be too busy eating their chocolate.

I was doing some xmas baking tonight and stopped long enough to pose my baker's girls for a studio shot on my stove top. ;)

Excellent composition, both with the chocolate and the photograph. Perfect color tone too.
