Here is my attempt! I had all sorts of amazing pictures in my head of how this was going to come out - none of my head pictures looked anything like this!!! 
About the photo:
Calendar - not only does it encompass my love of digi scrapping/computers/photography and SG (I took the photos, all kits came from SG and the calendar was done on my computer) but it also has another meaning - I'm usually a very organised person and need a calendar wherever I go.
Bottle of Wine - another double entendre, not only do I love red wines (or any wine/alcohol for that matter!) but this encompasses my love of anything Twilight, hence the 'Eclipse' wine!
Passport - my New Zealand passport. I am a dual citizen but NZ will always be my home country.
The ear-rings - again two meanings - I love jewellery and I love anything kiwiana, especially combining the two - paua earrings!
Cookbook - I adore cooking hence the recipe book, and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE chocolate! I was going to use 'live' chocolate for this, but it went missing?!?!?
And then if you look really, really closely you'll see my wedding/engagement/eternity rings. My family is the most important thing to me (as is hopefully portrayed in the family photos I have on the calendar page chosen!) - my husband, my children - family.
So that's it! I tried to get bits of 'me' in the photo - but no, it ain't gonna happen!!
Here are my camera settings:
Canon EOS 20D
Shutter Speed: 1/60 sec
Program - A-Dep - I was trying to keep everything in focus
F-Stop: f/4.5
ISO: 400
Focal Length: 33.0 (standing half on the bed and half on our drawers!)
Flash - fired (auto)
Not very amazing - but an interesting challenge!
