So I hope this one is easier than the last one (which by the way is still unsolved as of this posting, even with a new hint). What is it? Guess correctly first, and you will be entered to win a subscription to Stack!

Baking
As summer rolls around I will be baking less (got to stay cool). So I made one last pizza, and here is a photograph of the pizza dough:

So I hope this is harder, this is a new image from my plant series (hint, hint!!!), if you guess correctly what it is, you will be entered into a drawing for a Stack Magazine subscription service membership.
Post your guesses in the comments. And you have to be specific.
Great blogs to look at photos
I recently posted blogs I peruse to learn about photography and the creatives market, and today I am going to post links to blogs/websites I look at because the photography is amazing.
PDN’s Photo of the day
This blog posts a photo a day (surprise!), and the photograph can come from almost anywhere–news, advertising, fine art, etc.–and it is worth checking out at least weekly.
Boston Globe’s Big Picture
NYT’s Lens
Both of these photo-blogs are news centric, and have stunning photographs from current events. The Globe’s blog started the trend for the photo-a-day blogs, but the NYT’s blog has a way cool interface.
New Yorker’s Photo Booth
This is an interesting blog that dives into the meaning, history or background of photographs and photographers, most of which appeared in print in the magazine.
too much chocolate
This exhibits current, mostly fine art, photography and fosters dialogue and community between photographers.
The Photography Post
This is kind of cheating, as this site I use to find other blogs that contain awesome images.
Burn Magazine
Burn was started by a photographer to help fund and publish photographers covering amazing stories, whether they are personal, newsworthy or just interesting and visually appealing.
Humble Arts
This site houses monthly online exhibitions of emerging fine art photography.
Spanish Food
I have three photographs that I feel define my culinary experience in Spain.
The first image is of my first meal, breakfast. Below is smoked salmon on top of bleu cheese and bread. I washed it down with some tea, all the while thinking that bleu cheese and salmon was a weird combination. I feel though that this dish set the tone for the rest of meals, where I tried to order something that sounded a little strange–but usually turned out pallatable.
The next image is a rack full of jamon. It seemed that every restaurant that wanted to prove it was good would hang as many ham legs from the ceiling as possible. This particular scene is from a market. As a side note, I have not eaten any ham in a month.
If I was not eating ham, I was probably eating fish–and probably anchovies or sardines, though I did have a little tuna and squid.
All in all I was satisfied with the food in Spain because it was cheap and good–it is worth noting that the more expensive meals I had were no better than the cheap ones. I especially enjoyed ordering a small beer in Granada and receiving a free tapas dish.
