the thing that awes me about an image like
micknewton's is the chutspa of who ever came up with the thought that such a shot was possible. "Alright dear, first take take off all your clothes and stand over there,because next I'm going to cover you with a thick cold viscous fluid, remember although neither of us may enjoy it we are suffering for our art."

Unfortunately, the photo isn't mine. I wish it was, but the photo is apparently by Howard Schatz, which you will see in the bottom right corner of the photo.

If it were mine I'd have a lot of 'splaining to do to the Boss. "Now honey, don't be mad. Ya see there was this big chocolate challenge an... an ya know how much I like chocolate... an an an it was her idea all along... Unngg Honey, what's that knife for Sweetie?"

hate to be so negative, but this is a really boring challenge.

If you hate to be negative, why say anything at all? Didn't your mama teach you about keeping your trap shut if you can't say something positive?

The challenge in photography is to make the usually boring subject BECOME interesting in the photo!!

I think that all chocolate used for DPC purposes is calorie, fat, and guilt-free...it's like a law or something. :o)


I had to eat some (fairly large) pieces of chocolate today in order to get a good shot. But your remark really put my guilt at ease. If I find you were wrong, can I have your address to send over the gained pounds?

I want to clarify right now.
With regards to the chocolate challenge!!!!!!!
I came up totally blank on this one until the last day.......go figure!
Had lots of ideas but they all seemed like cliche`s.
I ran out of time tonight getting the shot I wanted, but I couldn't resist submitting what I had anyways.
Probably get clobbered, ............ if I only had more time!
This image was slowly getting better the longer I worked on it but I hit the wall as far as time is concerned.
Oh well, fingers and toes crossed...it's in.

Warming up that "update" button...he he.

For anyone who enjoyed that chocolate covered woman, the photographer, Howard Schatz, has some great shots.
