Couldn’t resist re-blogging this (via Oh Joy! by Dominic Episcopo). I’m just sorry the U.P. is missing… and that isn’t the best depiction of the L.P. either. But hey, when’s the last time you sculpted a steak? See two more at Oh Joy! and check out Episcopo’s amazing food photography by navigating to the portfolio’s […]
