I'm open to suggestions for the next photo contest.

My favorite topic is wildlife and animals, but I've already done that one at least once. I'm open to suggestions for the theme of the next photography contest.

Thanks,

Grumpy

It might be one’s own cooking space, a professional kitchen, a campsite, or a street-vendor’s set up?
“The Kitchen” I guess would be all-encompassing enough.
