Seriously people?? Mid 6s?? I don't get it. I really thought this was a 5.2 shot. I entered it anyway.
I think you're all a little warped. :)
Either that, or I managed to tap into some warm memories. I know my mom and grandma always used the good dishes. And these are in fact my grandma's dishes, my great grandma's glasses, and my grandma's silver.
This is a snapshot at best. It wasn't taken for DPC, it simply was because I never bother taking a picture of the Thanksgiving table. And this was before half the food was out. I just grabbed the camera, didn't really aim, and took two shots. There's not way on earth that I would let my Thanksgiving dinner get cold, after cooking for 7 hours straight, just to get a shot for DPC! I make freeze my kids, and stick my husband in front of bulldozers, but I'm not messing with thanksgiving. :)
Thanks for all the wonderful comments!

Indeed you did tap into some memories - days when the good dishes were taken out and used and then carefully packed away again. But that's not the only reason - this is a beautiful shot that is beautifully pped and doesn't look set-up - it looks like a table awaiting a family who will laugh and share and enjoy eating off of the special dishes. Congratulationsvawendy and thanks for the memories.
I'm glad this was a front page shot Wendy, it's a beautiful image. Classic and wonderful looking thanksgiving dinner I gave this a 10 in voting, great job and congrats!
When one has as many ribbons as you, I guess you can question getting this one... :P
As Robert remarked it evoked feelings of days years gone by for me. The highlights and blown areas are perfect when viewed in the light of a faded 'memory'. 8.
A likely blue. Very nice table, set for a party, and not just any feast. Photographically speaking the hard lightworks well, but does result in some blown highlights on glasses, and most unfortunatly, the right chair.
I remember Grandma always used her best dishes...
