Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week has the theme you make use of every day – ordinary but useful objects.
P.A. Moed is the host for this week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge: Everyday Objects.
Here’s a gallery of some things I’ve photographed in the past.
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is macro or close up photos.
Flower
Dried up soap
Buddha face
Hibiscus buds
spider
prairie grass
I have a file of photos labeled “Mystery photos.” Taking a picture of something very close up or from only one angle can change the perspective or disorient the viewer because there is no context in which to understand what one is looking at. This, for example:
I was sitting on the porch of our cottage in Wisconsin one summer and had just finished drinking a glass of water. The sun’s reflection on the glass gave it a weird, sort of creepy look and I cropped the photo to focus in on just the reflection of the glass on the wooden surface of the table (above).
Here’s the photo in its entirety:
It’s just a different way of looking at a common object, like a drinking glass!
When does a picture look like something other than what it is? Or like nothing at all in particular? Here are my interpretations of this week’s weekly photo challenge: abstract.
banana peel
dried up soap
I posted this before under a “mystery photo” series. Scary bony hand? No, it’s the reflection of a drinking glass on a table.
thighs in jeans
A spreading stump/root system – what does it look like?
