The super macro guessing game (2)

[FuryMe]

Hair from the drain in the tub?

[FuryMe]

Some shaggy sort of animal.

[Mom27andblessed]

Crissa got it...it was a pic of the duster attachment of my vacuum.

[FuryMe]

I know she did. But with nothing to guess I have to just run with what we have. Don't worry I'll guess Crissa's answer eventually. ;)

OK tomd -- You're up!!;)

[FuryMe]

Where in the world do you see a watch in that macro?

[yanchula81]

Where in the world do you see a watch in that macro?
I would have guessed that because I have taken macro shots of my watches and the hands look like that.

[FuryMe]

Oh it's the hands, gotcha. Well that would be a good macro I'd have to say.

[DEfinitivecars]

What specifies a super macro? I have a really good super close up of something, but it was taken with my standard lens. So the object is not as small as some of these.

Also, Im assuming from reading through here, that you have to be a winner to post yours up, right?

D

[FuryMe]

Yup you need to be a winner. If it is a good close up that would pose a challenge to us challenged members I'm sure it would be fine. Play along, you'll win at some point. And sometimes it's up for grabs.

[DEfinitivecars]

I am waiting eagerly for the next image!!!

TomD where are you ???

D

[monty28428]

I am waiting eagerly for the next image!!!

TomD where are you ???

He's in Wisconsin... but that's another game :-) WAIN (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=440566)

[SilverHCIC]

Oh it's the hands, gotcha. Well that would be a good macro I'd have to say.
^^^^^

Yep, I made sure that the initial shot had a portion of both the minute hand and the second hand in it, and since the hands have that radioactive, self-luminous stuff, I thought it would be easier.

[DEfinitivecars]

Whats the limit till its open game!?!?!?! Sorry Tom, I really want to post mine up! Hehe...

D

[Mom27andblessed]

usually 24 hours

[tomd]

I am waiting eagerly for the next image!!!

TomD where are you ???

D

I'm here, I just have a slow connection, the wind must have been from the south.

I have an image, but with all this excitement, I'll leave it open for ANYONE to post. If no one posts in the next hour or two, I'll stick one up.

So, put up a tough one, let's see it! :D

[tomd]

Where in the world do you see a watch in that macro?


smile!

[tomd]

Whats the limit till its open game!?!?!?! Sorry Tom, I really want to post mine up! Hehe...

D

I'm ready, let's see one.

[DEfinitivecars]

Thanks Tom.

Alright, I hope I didnt build it up so much and now it will suck! But here it is...

http://www.definitivecars.com/posted_pics/POTN/Imnotthatdumb.jpg

D

[FuryMe]

Imnotthatdumb.jpg Like the file name.

Looks like some sort of heating element.

[DEfinitivecars]

LOL, Thanks. I prob wouldent have thought of that if I didnt see others post on here that it was a giveaway!

And, nope, not a heating element... Defiantly looks like one though.

[SilverHCIC]

Reflector or part of auto tail light?

[DEfinitivecars]

Doh! Very close, Not sure here if thats a yes or not. It is from a tail light on a car but not the reflector...

I guess you got it. :-(

My next one will have to be much better one day.

[FuryMe]

Electric razor?

[SilverHCIC]

[FuryMe]

quarter barrel?

[SilverHCIC]

... I'm not sure what a quarter barrel is, so the answer must be nope:p

[FuryMe]

And your name is a clue also? Silver Hi-C?

[SolidxSnake]

Looks like pipe insulation, not sure what the inner material is but overall it's fairly soft and squishy, but foil lines the outside.

[FuryMe]

Electrical flex conduit?

[SilverHCIC]

And your name is a clue also? Silver Hi-C?
... Well, the picture is silverish in color :rolleyes:

[SilverHCIC]

Looks like pipe insulation, not sure what the inner material is but overall it's fairly soft and squishy, but foil lines the outside.
... Interesting guess. ... It does look like that foil-covered foam insulation stuff, but, alas, NOPE!!!

Electrical flex conduit?
... That's another interesting guess. ... I just used some aluminum flex conduit to pull some THHN 12-guage wire the other day, and now that I'm looking at the picture it does look like flex conduit. ... But it definitely isn't conduit :(

It's amazing how different things look when they are giant-sized!!!
