Mosaic Monday: Food, Glorious Food




For someone who has been trying to lose weight, I've been taking a lot of food pictures lately. Hmmm, do you think that may be a problem? ;)

These have been mostly taken for my 365 project, beauty unspoken. My friend Amanda and I take a different subject each week, and last week's subject was "delicious." But even before that, my camera had been turning more and more to food. And "red" is quite a popular subject as well... lol. Anyway, I thought I would make up a food mosaic this week. So here it is.

Bon Appetit!

Now let's have some mosaic fun! Here are the instructions:

1. Publish your Mosaic Monday post.
2. Once it is published, click on the title of the post. This will lead you to the static link for your post. The static link is the page with only that post on it. Copy the url from your browser at the top of the page.
3. Paste the url into the appropriate Mr. Linky box in this post.
4. Type your name in the appropriate Mr. Linky box in this post.
5. Click on "Enter."
6. Please link back to this Mosaic Monday post so that your readers can find other wonderful mosaics.
That's all there is to it! It's always a good idea to then check and see if your link is working. If you have any questions, feel free to email me: mrcarroll(at)optonline.net. I can't wait to see your mosaics! Here is Mr. Linky:

  4. Yummy to look at and eat! Why do we always think about food during the times when we are trying not to eat so much?! I am trying to be good- trying is the operative word.... I still sneak a chocolate every so often. ~Grin~

  7. Your photos are perfectly stunning - everything looks so delicious that I wonder if food companies shouldn't start asking you to photograph their treats for them.
    (I enjoyed your post on Cocoluxe so much that I feel like I can actually smell the place - breads, coffee and chocolate ahhhhh delightful)

  53. Hello Mary...

    My friend, I always just stand in awe of your photography!!! Absolutely gorgeous! The reds are just beautiful in these photos...ohhh, those raspberries in that pretty white bowl...yummy! Ooops...sorry, I was talking about photography not the food...wink! I love your choice of subjects...and you were very successful in cathching those mouth watering images! You are such a talented lady! I want to be just like you when I grow up! Hehe! I have become more and more interested in the photography aspect since blogging...I can see improvement but I have a long way to go. Of course, I just have a "point and shoot" camera..it's nothing special so I do the best with what I have at the moment! Anyway, you are such an inspiration to me, Mary! I always enjoy your mosaics and all the photos on your blog! Thank you for sharing your talents with us...and thank you so much for hosting Mosaic Monday!

    Warmest wishes,
    Chari @Happy To Design

  54. Hi Mary
    Thanks for stopping by. The center photo was my flowers, but the others are pictures I took of flowers around the neighborhood. All of them were taken last Spring.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I discovered your beautiful blogs over the weekend and decided to join in the fun. Loved the red and luscious foods in your mosaic. Now I'm going to go check out other blogs!

    Have a wonderful day!

    ReplyDelete
  56. It is difficult to look at pictures of luscious food when one is trying to loose weight. But those pictures are all around us. On TV if they aren't advertising viagra or cars it is FOOD - with close up pictures.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Oh, so beautiful! And thank you for the link to your P365 collaboration. I love the captures there!
    Have a great day!

    ReplyDelete
  58. Mary this is truly "eye candy" without the calories! Love it!Yummo!
