Creative food photography

As I told on the discussions I am no cook...
This was my first idea, but I wanted pink pasta and would have to drive 140km to buy it as there is no place to purchase it closer.
Therefore I gave a try with dog food, but I was not satisfied, so I went back to my first idea using Dante (the vertebra), chili tagliatelli and tomato tortellini...
For those who don't know Dante, he is a sheep vertebra I found in nature some years ago and travelled with me in many places, also was an actor in some photographs. Now he is too fragile and retired in my library from where he can check on me!!!!! Maybe he is a controlling freak, but nevertheless he was happy to be part of this week's challenge.
