"does my blog look good in this" news and stories

Usually, Andrew puts up a post announcing the entries in the monthly food blog photography competition, Does My Blog Look Good in This? I happen to be in charge of this month's event, though, so I get the honors. All of the entries are simply gorgeous. You can view them here, in the official gallery. The judges for the event will pick a winner at the end of the month, but please leave comments on your favorite photos to give the bloggers some feedback and let the judges know who you think should win. Not that they'll be swayed in their judicial responsibilities, of course, but it certainly can't hurt!

If you have your own food blog and would like to participate, read the submission guidelines. There is still plenty of time to enter.

Aussie based Tomatom has just posted the results from the hotly contested Does My Blog Look Good In This photo competition. Ignoring the fact that two winning entries came from the same person (the rules state just one entry per person/blog per month) the standard of entries was really great for this round. Ed has posted a spreadsheet of the results with comments from the two judges - Terry Durack (restaurant reviewer for The Independent on Sunday in London and European editor of Gourmet Traveller) and Jill Dupleix (The Times cook in London).

The winning photo really is excellent, I hope you agree. It was entered by Lucullian Delights. The next round, now accepting entries, is being hosted by Nika's Culinaria.

My favourite food blogging event - Does My Blog Look Good In This - is a monthly food porn photography challenge. The winners for the 14th round have been announced by the Cooking Diva. The picutre here is the winning image - great isnt it! It is by Marcela in Argentina.

Just one point separated this image from the second place winner while two points separated the first place and the third place winner (which was my cheese image; shame I thought for sure I was gonna win - sob). Winners described here while all entrants can be viewed here. The next round is to be hosted by Tomatom in Australia who is having a gastro-fling around Vietnam at the moment but is sure to announce it soon.

Now this is a real tough one. Who agrees that the standard of the latest round of the food pron extravaganza Does My Blog Look Good In This has reached a staggering level of quality.

I thought I was assured a top place with my cheese snap but then it is up against Johannas' Cinnamon Meringues, Fiordizucca's Matcha tagliatelle with tomatoes, tofu and soy sauce and the Kitchen Mage's Mud Puffs. And that is just three from the array of excellent pictures. The results should be announced on Cooking Diva, for it is the lovely Melissa who is hosting this round, on Monday. It's going to be close.
