Had another idea. My family runs away when I get ideas.

    I think this is great...

    The only thing missing are those squiggles of what looks like chocolate syrup to me, that the "great chefs" use to dress up the lack of food on the plate!

    nice pic...your right, even a hot dog presented right looks gormet. the niggle i see right off is a paralax (sp?) problem where the sides tilt out making it look like the stuff might roll off both side of the table...a small problem a little PS can straighten up pretty quick.

    good idea nicely presented clap.gif

    Great idea, Dee. It would probably look cool to do it with mustard. lol3.gif

    I like the idea. I think it's too much. The pastel pitcher doesn't fit well with the bright vibrant colors of the rest of the scene. I would loose the red flowers in the tall white vase and the other distracting red flowers in the background. Maybe move the large bouquet to that area. I think Dee's idea would be great with ketchup and mustard artfully drawn on the plate. Tighten up the shot and make the gourmet hotdog the center of focus and you got a winner. Maybe a lower angle on the shot too. JMO
