Bit of a golden oldie here. Photography is all about seizing and re-purposing tools. A tribute to my father's old Kodak 828 Pony, with which he worked many wonders.
ripe sungrown tomatoes, Granny Smith apples, brown onions, spices, sugar, vinegar, garlic, chilli, salt - that accounts for 4 of the 18 kilos - Tomato chutney
It's fun even though you have to invest a good deal of time and effort.
I'm going to try more detailed one the next time. :)
Also I want to make a video of how to make a MH charaben, in the form of Deuce's cooking show or something, I believe his forte should be captured much more.

Esther Atieno prepares dinner for her family in Kisumu, Kenya. Her recently installed jiko kisasa (firewood stove) uses less fuel than her previous stove. It’s also more efficient, giving her time to do bead work for extra income. Photo: Peter Kapuscinski / World Bank

Out cooking dinner on the grill today, I noticed a lot of birds flying around. So, I put out some seed and peanuts, then grabbed the camera and waited patiently for the feathered friend action to commence... I waited... Saw some birds fly by... Waited some more... Hey, there goes a Cardinal... Waiting and waiting... Flipped the pork roast steaks and baked potato.... Waiting.... Alright! a small sparrow lands by the seeds! As I'm slowly and cautiously raising my camera, a kid rides by on a bike spooking the bird... Grrrrrr... More waiting.... I start to take pictures of dumb stuff in the yard: The thermometer on the fence, the pull ring on the gate. The birdhouse in the corner of the deck. Then a beautiful female Cardinal lands on the support bar which the aforementioned birdhouse hangs from. I had to act fast and smooth as these birds don't hang around long. I had the shutter at high speed continuous and before it flew away, I was able to fire off about six perfectly out-of-focus shots... Drat!
More waiting... Waiting waiting waiting... And then, I'm looking at the two sconces hanging on the wall just next to where I am standing. I back up and admire the sparkling little crystal thingies hanging from it and decide to take a few shots.... Not bad me thinks to me-self. So I give myself a little workshop in the fine art of Depth of Field right then and there. About 20 shots later, dinner was ready. I put everything away and enjoyed a nice dinner with Dale and after doing a bunch of other stuff, I took a look at my shots. Whittled down to four and then this one. Not bad I guess. Could be worse. Could be better.
Wish it was a bird....
cooking is a tough job, it's similar to the photographer one in some ways.

Strobist - Lighting 102 Assignment - Cooking Light
I took this shot for the Strobist Lighting 102 "Cooking Light". If you're reading this you probably already know the idea - shoot something found in your kitchen and control the specular highlight coming off it.
The setup:
Shot @ 1/250 at f/9 to kill the ambient light. 580EXII Speedlite high and at camera right. Diffused with a home-made softbox and with a half-cut of CTO to warm up the scene a bit. My fiance's make-up mirror is just left of frame providing the tiniest bit of fill to the orange.
Not much food in the house (certainly in the fresh produce department) so I made whatever I could. Not a particularly well-balanced meal, but tasty and filling.

Back to the kitchen and wasn't I pleased about that - it is like winter outside!! Went to the gym today and someone told me it wouldn't be long until Christmas and there was an obvious look of surprise on my face and then he said "it's cold enough to be Christmas!" So real pleased I didn't have to walk about looking for something to shoot.
We have plenty of oils, sauces and the like to prepare almost anything so here's a few of the bottles on display for today's challenge.

The city of Udaipur is located in the Aravalli ranges of the royal state of Rajasthan and is also known as the jewel of Mewar. Also known as the City of Dawn, Udaipur is surrounded by ancient mountains and set on the edge of three lakes. It is a beautiful old city with narrow lanes flanked by bright stalls, gardens, lakes, palaces and temples meandering through it. It is situated at a distance of about 405 km from the state capital Jaipur.
Udaipur was founded in 1559 and named after Maharana Udai Singh. It then replaced Chittor as the capital of the Sisodia dynasty, when according to legend, the Maharana went out hunting one day and met a holy man who blessed him and told him to built a palace at that very spot, as it would be well protected. Today, Udaipur is a one of the better-known tourist destinations of India and an integral part of any itinerary for Rajasthan.
