CONFECTIONS
Savor the firsts. Nothing every tastes quite as good the second time around. I still remember my first taste of pomegranate. And the first chocolate cake that came from my Easy Bake Oven remains unrivaled. For some reason we always assume that things get better with time, but I find that, at least with food, nothing ever beats the first taste. This next Call requires the photo-equivalent of the Easy Bake. Interested?
Check out this Call for Entries from RayKo Photo Center (San Francisco, CA) for the 6th Annual International Juried Plastic Camera Show. The entry fee is low, and I can’t wait to see how many of you own a plastic camera…or end up buying one. Take a look…
