I'm totally uninspired by the food I eat. I spent the summer focused on a healthy, vegetarian, organic diet. Now not only am I eating meat, but I'm eating total junk. It's disgusting. And I'm too embarrassed to photograph myself in relation to anything I eat. So I'm wiping the slate...errr...spoon clean. This month's Self Portrait Challenge even prompted a healthy trip to the grocery store this evening.My submission to the challenge this week is a bit of a cop-out. I am hoping a new diet will produce more inspired photographs.

I LOVE this photo!!! Very cool!
I'm so jealous that you have the chance to play with your camera and really ponder the SPC challenges. Maybe when I'm done with school I'll be able to join in the fun more regularly. Until then, I will just have to sit back and relish in the awesome photos you take.
Cool picture. You know I love a good reflection.
VERY creative!
I love your photography...every week, I think WOW, where does she come up with these pictures, and every week, I am amazed again at your talent. Great Photo
i think this is an awesome shot! the challenge is partly on our relationship with food right? i think it's perfect!
cool shot!
This is a great shot!
Even though I know "scientifically" how this happens, I am still fascinated with the upside-down world in a spoon :)
CLEEEEEVER YOU!
i hope your being chosen for holli's story this week helps you feel like it's less of a cop out to show your dissatisfaction with food by putting yourself into an empty spoon. it's a more than perfect way to express such a thing - and the photo itself, sans story, is just lovely.
This is an amazing image - I first saw it on the Self-Portrait Challenge website, and was blown away - it speaks to me both of the glum-dull-food-blues and of the oh-my-god-what-am-I-about-to-put-my-mouth-food-blues and what-a-pretty-shiny-clean-spoon happiness - that joy that there is in simple things, like stirring coffee or pushing into ice cream . . . thank you!
i don't think this photograph is in any way a cop out. it expresses clearly how you feel.
i'm struggling with getting food in the photo too. the empty spoon feels perfect to me.
love that reflection.
