I have a terrible time trying to photograph on white unless it has a
colored border, but yours are coming out very nice. :-) I guess you
have the lighting right.

My worst are my two white plastic mixing bowls. I'm learning not to use
those tho'.

I think most of my pics will be taken on those new hyooge red glass
plates I have, at least for now. I'll also be getting a black set. The
sparklies in the background help break up the black.

Christmas dinner 2006.
1/2 roast duck with a mango wine sauce that I screwed up, (tasted fine
but looks terrible, that won't happen again as I know what I did
wrong!), Wild rice cooked in duck stock, pureed butternut squash and a
mix of steamed baby veggies and asparagus tops with lemon butter.

That plate is a 13" glass "charger" that I bought in a set of 6 of. When
you are trying to serve 1/2 of a bird on a plate, regular dinner plates
are not large enough to do it right.

Glass chargers were $7.00 per plate at Wal-mart, but $16.00 each at
Hobby Lobby. <G>

I still want to spring for a set of 6 of the black.
