i use the free photo album on my yahoo account & provide a link here if you
just want to show pics. Alternatively... you can post to alt.binaries.food
& we can all see & talk about it, you'll see a few people like nick cramer,
FG & myself there with weekly food picture posts... the others, they lurk &
make a few comments once in a while. It's always good to just lurk for a
couple of days to see what's going on before posting. And if you do decide
to post, may i suggest a short series, starting with the Hmong farmers at
their stalls(i'd like to see what it's like), then the vegs. you buy from
them & finally the end result on the plate. That would be a good set of pics
to start with. I've been hanging round alt.bin.food for about 2 years now &
i don't think anyone has ever mentioned or taken pics of the Hmong farmer
markets!
