Description This is the first in a series of images, I am trying to convey emotions pictorially. I don't know if it works or not, but
I'm still pleased with the result of this first one.

4x5 press camera
120mm lens @ f/8
Kodak EPP

And yucky caviar, I almost threw up.

Enjoy!

Well, I always show the rebate of my film... just a personal preference. There's never any fake borders.

Thanks for the comment though!

Yep. That is quite disgusting. I guess I never knew caviar was so black.

I love that I'm able to get up close and see the caviar seemingly about to gush over and the stubble following the direction of the chin

I like caviar on crakers but when they are alone they are disgusting.

and the frame is sort of whacked.

Your lips are so beautiful.
In my eyes, they can't make anything look disgusting.

Augh- that is so gross. Which is, of course, exactly the reaction I'm assuming you wanted people to get. So in that case, good job. Still. Eeew. >_>
