Building block (create something with it) READ ALL... Voting ends today (Friday, 10 Feb 2012)
15 entries, 218 votes I have uploaded a image for you to play with. The challenge is to download it and do anything you want to it. The more creative the better. ADDITIONAL RULES APPLY, PLEASE READ COMPLETELY! This idea was given to me by another host who thought it would fit the theme of this series. He also suggested putting them together as a slide show after the challenge is over. Something to think about...

Inside My Kitchen Voting ends tomorrow (Saturday, 11 Feb 2012)
183 entries, 1482 votes No, this is NOT a 'food photography' challenge. NOT a challenge about 'interior photography' . Try to find small and ignored part of your kitchen which never looked that photogenic. It could be your dish rack, the small print on your apron, a cockroach infested piece of stale pizza, the door of your refrigerator or, may be, the crack on the sink. Photographs those talk about you. Broadcasting from your kitchen.
