As summer peaks, start taking your food photos celebrating the best that summer has to offer! This edition of the Carnival of Food Photography is all about summer and summer foods!
Gather up the best the season has shown you, take some photos of it, put it in your blog, and enter it here! I know some people that are reading this are capable of not only great photos, but know how to get a shot that says ‘SUMMER’!!! (yes, I’m talking to you, Nika and Nicole, and others!)

Welcome to the June 12, 2007 edition of Carnival of Food Photography! Remember, the focus is on the photo!
I got a lot more entries this time… Thanks to all that submitted. I think I’ve got all of the entries represented except one, which was in a forum, not a blog… I apologize, but the Carnival is for blogs! Continue reading
n 3 weeks exactly, my barbecue competition teammate, Mark, and I will be holding our first cooking class! (Details can be found here.) With that in mind, later this week, we’ll be reviewing the class and deciding what we’re going to be doing. The theme is tailgating, and, weather permitting, we’ll set up a pseudo-competition site to show the people in the class how a comp might be run. We’ll also be cooking all the food we’ll be going over with the class. My thoughts are to include more than recipes, though; I want to talk about the different types of outdoor cooking and how/when to use different types of outdoor cooking (direct, indirect, smoking). I hope to have a really good packet of info for everyone, with the 2 part goal of getting more people interested in barbecue/outdoor cooking and to be asked to do a class again. Continue reading
I have to admit I’m having fun with this blog community stuff. There’s a huge range of approaches to food, and people are writing about it all over the world.
I’ve recently been included in 2 ‘carnivals’, which are groupings of blog entries that pertain to a topic. One is the Carnival of the Recipes: BBQ Edition, and the other is Carnival of the Grill. In fact, I’ll be hosting the next Carnival of the Grill. Submissions have to be in by September 4, 2006 (Labor Day in the US). Please send stuff in to give me lots to choose from!
I also decided to start up a Carnival of my own: The Carnival of Food Photography! Instead of concentrating on a type of cooking like grilling or barbecuing, I want to focus on great pictures of food, with varying topics. (get the pun… focus… photos…).
The first Carnival of Food Photography will have a submission deadline of September 10th… and the topic is:
(drumroll)
Grill Marks!
So, while there’s no stipulation as to the type of cooking or what’s being cooked, I want to see some GREAT grill mark photos. These can be from indoor cooking as well as outdoor, but, when we have grilled items, those grill marks really get a lot of oohs and aahs! So let’s see your best!

If you have any topics for the carnival you’d like to see, let me know. I already have some in mind, but I’m open to suggestions! Continue reading
