I have created a series of 3 photos which may or may not tell a story to you.

From a can to food. Palettable.

I think the scene needs a touch of 'brightness' but otherwise, it works. Just wish in the second pic, that the 'missing' word wasn't hidden...but, you had no control over the sticker.

Cool nonetheless. Thanks for sharing.

thanks for that, your right about that sticker, it's been on the can for well over 40 years.

it would be a shame to remove it :):

Mark - great thinking here. I like how you've put these into a series with the baking powder alone, baking power with cookie tin and then the two with actual cookies. :)

The concern I have is that the cookie tin isn't clearly identifiable. I only know what it is because I've read your earlier posts where you explained it. Without this bit of information the middle picture is confusing, but I am not quite sure how to rectify this.

I really like what you've done with the last image, although I'd increase the dof a bit more to make the baking powder tin more readable and I'm not sure about the cookies. They seem to perfect to be homemade. ;)

and shame on you - you've made me hungry for sweets now. :)

Thanks for your comments. I really appreciate it. this is the first time I have really done anything like this and wasn't to sure about the effect.

I did crop some out of the 2nd picture but not to sure if it's going to show enough. I do have other photos too that I can use. it's hard knowing which one best fits the theme.

as for the cookies, well don't ya know I am a really good cook. NOT. in fact I was just lazy :)

again thanks for your input.
