Pom Jam

Last weekend, my mom gave me a jar of pomegranate jam. It's my favorite but I didn't have any all week because I was waiting to take a photo of it. I guess I thought since it was so delicious, it would be easy to photograph, all glowing with jam goodness.

But...I was not happy with the how the photos came out. Of course, I didn't take that many. I ate my subject after just a few minutes! Sigh. Today's lesson: Don't photograph food when you are hungry! :)
