CreativeLive has terrific classes, especially the class this weekend – Andrew Scrivani’s class on food photography. CreativeLive airs classes free to view live, which is amazingly generous. And then if you love the class and want to view later, the classes can be purchased for a reasonable fee.

Andrew Scrivani is a wonderful food photographer and I’m really enjoying his class! He has such a fantastic breezy way of teaching and the knowledge he shares is clear, interesting (of course! ♥food) and FUN. He had a Facebook contest today, Photograph your Lunch, and he will select three photographs for critique tomorrow. There are so many wonderful entries I’m sure mine will be lost in the shuffle. I thoroughly enjoyed setting up this shot of my lunch and applying some of Andrew’s excellent photography tips.

Grilled Chicken, fresh thyme and a bit of Ginger Spread on a homemade Hot Cross Bun. Dessert was a pear and two figs.

It was rich to my soul to be able to reach up and pluck a ripe fig from the tree in our backyard. The chicken with ginger spread and thyme was delicious, especially with the lightly sweet current and mace bun.
