Photo Quiz

In testing out my camera’s macro focus, I took some unusual photos of ordinary things around our apartment.
See if you can guess what each item is. :-) I’ll post the answers on Monday.

1. Crystal? 2. Moldy Cave? 3. Airplane? 4. Amber? 5. Milky Way? 6. Art? 7. PVC Pipes? 8. Woodpile? 9. Molten Lava? 10. ConveyorBelt? 11. Lunar Surface?

    I can’t tell what most of those are, and I live here. :)

    Ok, here’s a hint:

    2, 3, 4, 7, and 11 are almost certainly in your home, too, though perhaps a different color or style.

    8, 9, and 10 you’re pretty likely to have in some form or other.

    1 and 6 might not be something you have around, but they’re still not uncommon.

    Sorry, Nate, no prizes. Or how about room and board for you to come up and visit after your nephew’s born? ;-)

    Feel free to guess as many or as few as you have an idea for.

    Here is my guess for number 1 but nobody else thinks so and they are probably right. Bicycle spoke
    The other folks are guessing the following.
    2=Paper towel 3=clock 7=toothbrush 8=something wicker 9=fruit rollup 10=watch band 11=soaps suds

    No guesses on the others at this time.

    Ok. Here are the answers.
    Anyone who still wants to guess, just don’t read any further.

    1. glass doorknob (Ok, this was a tough one.)
    2. egg carton
    3. clock face
    4. liquid soap (I thought for sure you guys would get this one! It’s even the classic “Dial antibacterial” color!) :)
    5. chalkboard
    6. Wheat Thins box (Again, a little tough.)
    7. Q-tips (I thought the little fuzz at the bottom right-hand corner would give it away.)
    8. basket (Wicker’s close enough.)
    9. candle wax
    10. watch band
    11. bubbles on a bar of soap

    So you got 3, 8, 10, and 11!
    Not bad!
    :)
