FEAST explores the intimate connection and cultural obsession with food. The images capture the initial steps as we grasp the food in anticipation of preparation. This simple act is the first step of many before it ends up being presented to us on platters and plates, served by spoons and ladles, and poured into cups. The lack of color reveal textures and raw form which is often forgotten upon consumption. The FEAST images were selected from a series of eleven unique limited edition black and white film photographic prints (silver gelatin artist prints).

Contemporary fine art photographer Dale M Reid took charge of her destiny by making a commitment to herself and her life partner and soulmate. Reid's belief in herself has allowed her to chart a new course in life as a full-time professional artist and transgender woman. As Dale transitioned through her new life journey, she developed technical skills, questioned convention, trusted her instincts, and with her passion, was able to craft a distinctive artistic voice. Her artwork ranges from classical to sensual to erotic and engages the viewer to question what they see.
