Fantastic Food: Plates for Sharing

It couldn’t be simpler: upload an image of fantastic food (shot by you) using the submissions form below; you will a receive a notification that it is live on the site, and then the community can vote on your photograph. The top ten most popular photographs will be included in a NOWNESS guide on Foodspotting.com and reviewed by our panel of judges, which includes chef April Bloomfield (of The Spotted Pig, The Breslin and The John Dory), food artist Jennifer Rubell, restaurateur Frank Falcinelli (co-creator of Frankies Spuntino and Prime Meats), Swallow magazine editor James Casey, and Foodspotting.com’s Fiona Tang. The panel and NOWNESS will select the winning image, to be showcased in a feature on the site—placing the photographer in the esteemed company of NOWNESS contributors considered to be among the world’s leading image-makers. To whet your appetite and trigger your photo finger, we canvassed our panel, as well as respected chefs including Mark Hix, David Chang and French baker Gontran Cherrier, for their own tantalizing food images—on view in today’s slideshow and on our submissions page. The competition is open for your uploads from today until Wednesday December 22, and voting will continue until Thursday January 6.
