The super macro guessing game

[Rumjungle]

Drywall




Just kidding.;) I have no idea on this one. Cheese grater?

[In2Photos]

Nope, to both Rum.;)

[In2Photos]

It's a blur.

Gimme a break, this is a photography forum.

huh?

[Ronald S. Jr.]

He thinks the shot is blurry. He doesn't realize that it's the texture of it. He's also being rude.

[In2Photos]

He thinks the shot is blurry. He doesn't realize that it's the texture of it. He's also being rude.

That is what I thought. Since this is a game I won't respond at his level if that was the intent. The pic is a crop, as I do not have a macro lens yet. Sorry for its quality.

[Matoch]

He thinks the shot is blurry. He doesn't realize that it's the texture of it. He's also being rude.

Same thought here.

It looks like it might be some sort of grill on a air intake or something.

James

[Mike6158]

LOL. It's the stuff you buy for old people so they can take photos.

So has anyone kept their film cameras to use IR, UV, slide film etc?

I still have my EOS1 and EOS1N

[Nick C.]

Part of a strap on a bag or case?

[photobitz]

I still have my EOS1 and EOS1N

I wish I'd had such pro equipment when I was using a lot of film. I've seen a few 1N s go on Ebay for around US$200. I nearly choked seeing that.

As for the pic... Any idea why I can't see it?

[In2Photos]

Part of a grill yes but more specifically on what?

[In2Photos]

Nope.

Yes, you are probably logged onto ht tp://www.photo... and not ht tp://photo...

See this thread (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=166763).

Oh that's my exact problem. Why does Mr Pekka not change it so you are re-directed to http://photo... when you log in?

I am not sure. He has posted a reply to that somewhere, but the exact thread escapes me right now.

Nope.

[Matoch]

How about a hint?

James

[In2Photos]

Ok, a hint:

The grill appears on something that could go hand-in-foot with our favorite hobby-photography.

[chansh]

Anything to do with you tripod and head?

[In2Photos]

Anything to do with you tripod and head?

Nope.

[In2Photos]

Do I need to give another hint? Is the pic that bad?:(

[Mike Bell]

Part of a shoe?

[In2Photos]

Part of a shoe?

You sir would be correct. It is the vent on the side of my adidas golf shoe.

[Mike Bell]

Easy when you get a clue like that (and have trainers on! :lol: ).

OK - an easy one as my store of fiendishly difficult ones has run out! :cry:

No - but light is involved.

[Matoch]

I never would have guessed the show.

The optical part on a mouse?

CORRECT! You're up Matoch.

[Matoch]

Sorry for the delay everyone. I'm posting this and going to bed since it's 2:30 am. I'll check first thing when I wake up. If people are reasonably sure a guess is correct please feel free to continue.

Maglite Flashlite Backend

[Matoch]

Wrong! It's not the backend. It's the front. But I'll give it to you anyway since I'm so nice.

Your up jr#8!

James

[jr#8]

Wow. My mag has a knurled front, Give my a few to get one up. I have to fine something good. Should be here around 7:00 PM Here in the Noreast of the US

[jr#8]

Heres one that will probably go fast!

[Matoch]

This looks like something I should recognize. For some reason I think it might be computer related.

Looks like a skull with lit up eyes. But what exactly it's on I have no idea.

James

[Mike Bell]

Heres one that will probably go fast!

I don't think it will - for once I am stumped! :cry:

[jr#8]

a few more hours I'll make it bigger but it will still be small

[jr#8]

Here it is alittle bigger

[AirBrontosaurus]

Alright, I'll start us off. Some sort of traction shoe, such as cleats or golf spikes?

[Mathiau]

my head hurts!

[chansh]

Pedal of a mountain bike.

[jr#8]

Not even close. Except Matoch was the kinda close. But its hard to see from there.

[chansh]

Give us a clue, please.

[cfpackerfan]

The little metal clasps that your laces fit in on your boots.

[Rumjungle]

electrical contacts?

[Rumjungle]

IMy daughter thinks that camera is the cat's butt.
Forgive me, but is being the "cat's butt" a desirable quality?;)
It's just not something I've heard before in the vernaculars of southern California.:)

[Rumjungle]

Alright, alright. I think that's enough. Perhaps you guys should PM the rest of this argument. Look, I see both your points, but the bottom line is that this thread is here for everyone's entertainment. Let's not drag it down any further and, instead, get back to playing the game.

You are right Rum, I will say nothing else on the matter in this thread.

[Rumjungle]

Thanks, Mike. Now if only jr#8 will just log in and tell me that my guess was right, then all will be well.;)

[Jon]

This has gone more than far enough. Names have been taken; If this continues, someone may get to take a close-up of their very bruised wrist. This has gone well beyond (if it ever was) constructive criticism. Drop it.

[Kevin]

Ditto... !!!

[TooManyHobbies]

Electrical contacts for a wireless device to plug into for charging like a wireless mouse or headset?

[jr#8]

Sorry for the delay but no ones got it yet. It is electrical but not a contact. You cant see it unless you take it apart. its also something that you have to build it yourself.

[DigitalMDX]

All I can come up with is perhaps the inside of an electric razor... but the build it yourself part is throwing me...

[Matoch]

I have no idea really.

How about some custom screws for your pc?

James

[In2Photos]

Solder connections on the back of a circuit board?

[Rumjungle]

part of an RC car?

[Ross McT.]

Light up wiper nozzels for a rice rocket?

[Mike Bell]

We need another clue! What does it do?

[DigitalMDX]

Solder connections on the back of a circuit board?

Wow, nice job... that has got to be it... the solder connections on the back of a cable, such as a serial or parallel cable... this one was driving me nuts... I bet that the first photo is of pin 7 and the second photo shows pins 6 and 7. I bet you got it...

[jr#8]

I bet that the first photo is of pin 7 and the second photo shows pins 6 and 7. I bet you got it... Its the inside of a 25 pin connector(solder connections)
So I'll say DigitalMDX and In2photos got it. SO you 2 fight it out who'll do the next one.

[TooManyHobbies]

You know I've made enough cables in my lifetime that I should have guessed it. Shame on me.

[DigitalMDX]

Go ahead In2photos... I wouldn't have figured it out without your guess...

[In2Photos]

Go ahead In2photos... I wouldn't have figured it out without your guess...

Thanks. Sorry I took so long but I am at home with a back injury. Anyway to keep the game going here is one. i hope the quality is better than previous images I have posted.

[Rumjungle]

Locking mechanism for a quick release?

[defordphoto]

Looks like the rotating mechanism on a chair or something similar.

[In2Photos]

No to both, but Rum it is a locking mechanism, just not for a quick release.

[Rumjungle]

Locking mechanism for um, you know, those thingys.;)

[Reluix]

well i know what it is but, i dont wanna say because i dont have a macro shot to put up =\...

[BearLeeAlive]

well i know what it is but, i dont wanna say because i dont have a macro shot to put up =\...
Well quick then, get one together and take us out of our suspensfull misery.:)

[Reluix]

well i would get a macro shot but i sorta dont have any equpiment yet...im getting all of that in July, though if i say, you are welcome to put one up for me ;D

[DigitalMDX]

Shoot through a magnifying glass, or through a glass of water... reverse one of your lens'... half the fun of macro is trying to figure out how your going to get the shot... :)

[jr#8]

Center of a cd holder

[Reluix]

Center of a cd holder

well, its acutually a cd player, but im sure you ment that...im sure the guy who posted will comfirm that... ;D

[Rumjungle]

No wonder it looked so familiar! I see that on laptops everyday. Good one, Mike.

[chansh]

I don't belive it. Every time I know an answer. Somebody always get there first.

[jr#8]

If I'm right I'm going to be away from my PC for a couple of days. So I'll turnit over to someone who has never had a chance to post here!

[In2Photos]

The cd player is correct. Actually taken from an old portable cd player.

[Mike Bell]

Nice one, Mike. Obvious - once you are told! :lol:

C'mon you newbies I'll turnit over to someone who has never had a chance to post here! This is YOUR chance!

[In2Photos]

Who is going to step up here and post a shot?

[Slemi]

Could this be a back of a light bulb?

[In2Photos]

Could this be a back of a light bulb?

huh? There isn't a current picture up.

[Rumjungle]

It's been quite a while. Any newbie want to post something? If not, I've got one ready to go.

[In2Photos]

Go for it Rum. It has been 13 hours since I posted the answer.

[Rumjungle]

That is a long time. In that case, have a go at this:

[Rumjungle]

Not a bike pedal. Webcrawlur's close but you have to be more specific.

[webcrawlur]

Ok, how about the hinge on a bluetooth headset.:confused:

[Rumjungle]

That's it exactly. You're up, web.

[Photo Guy]

Yep, I'd say it is a chip

[webcrawlur]

I can see how it does resemble a ruffle, ha ha. :p

No, it is not a chip.;)

[Photo Guy]

Waffle?

[scraggles]

I want chips now. WIth Helluva Good Bacon Horseradish dip...

http://www.jabra.com/JabraCMS/NA/EN/MainMenu/Products/WirelessHeadsets/JabraJX10/JabraJX10


Are you sure about that, Scraggles? It's the H700, Motorola's smallest. It's about the same or smaller than the JX10.:)

[Rumjungle]

a little more specific, if you will...:p

Hmm, chocolate covered donut or crueller?

[webcrawlur]

no, not an eclare.

Rum is the closest, chocolate covered what?:lol:

[webcrawlur]

Go ahead Rum, I'm off to bed.

[Photo Guy]

http://www.depictionaddiction.com/host/guess1.JPG

:D

[Rumjungle]

What the HELL is that thing?!?:lol: BTW, I don't have one ready so I'm glad you posted something Photo Guy (and it looks to be an interesting one).

[Photo Guy]

Cool rum, I know you could knock this one out. :D

[TooManyHobbies]

Mold, fungi, or flower pollen?

[Photo Guy]

Mold, fungi, or flower pollen?

People usually say that, but NO.

[sdmaker]

lol, it looks like wax out of a lava light.

[Photo Guy]

lol, it looks like wax out of a lava light.

It is not. :D Care to try again folks?

[Matoch]

It looks like foam grapes. But who would have foam grapes =)

James

[Photo Guy]

:lol::lol::lol::lol: Sorry James. Nope.

[In2Photos]

It kinda looks like those Dippin Dots you get in the mall, but I am not sure they stick together like that.

[Photo Guy]

No it is not.

[Photo Guy]

I'll post it again so you don't have to keep going back to the previous page.

[cfpackerfan]

OK, my kids and I have been staring at this for a LONG time, and have NO idea, other than the fact that it looks cold. How about a teeny tiny clue?

[Photo Guy]

cfpackerfan I will give a clue, but not as yet. :D










Okay, I'm easy........... here's your clue. You could find it in almost every home. ;)

[Matoch]

Is this a sponge?

Also about how big is this?

James

[Photo Guy]

Is this a sponge?

Also about how big is this?

James

No James, it is not a sponge.

I'd say it is smaller than your little finger.

[cfpackerfan]

20 questions time....

1. is it edible?

[cfpackerfan]

Question #2
Is the purplish stuff connected to the orange, or is that just a background color?

[Matoch]

I'd say it is smaller than your little finger.


It looks so much larger then that in the picture. I guess that's why it's the super macro guessing game. =)

James

[Photo Guy]

cfpackerfan, too much info too soon. :D

You're right about macro James ;)

[cfpackerfan]

Ay yi yi yi yi....
I suppose the kids and I will have to stare at it a little longer. :p

Is it a gummy fruit snack?

[Ross McT.]

Is it Nerds candy?

[Photo Guy]

Ay yi yi yi yi....

No it is not. :lol:

[Photo Guy]

Is it Nerds candy?

HUH..........nope :D

[Pekka]

To me it looks like some sort of a packing material.

[webcrawlur]

Wow, that's a wierd image. It'll take Rum to guess it, lol.


A piece of lava rock...

[Photo Guy]

None of the above.

[Rumjungle]

Thanks for the compliment, but I don't have the slightest clue.:)

Extra terrestrial poop?;)

[Photo Guy]

If no one figures it out by noon on Sunday, I’ll reveal what it is.

[jr#8]

Colorform

[Rumjungle]

How about just a small hint?

[Photo Guy]

I did give some hints.

It is smaller than your little finger and you could find it in almost every home.

[webcrawlur]

I did give some hints.

one hint to replace the "smaller than your little finger" hint, 'cause this is a macro guessing game so it would have to be smaller than your little finger, :lol:

[annab_99]

mold? It has to be some sort of fungus :)

[DigitalMDX]

foam stuffing material

[In2Photos]

A part of a child's toy?

BTW although you say there is one of these in almost every home, you must remember that this forum is international with married or single adults as well as children. You might be suprised to find that this isn't in as many homes as you think.;)

[Photo Guy]

Here are the hints.
1. Smaller than your little finger.
2. Found in almost every home.
3. Temperature will determine it's color.

[Matoch]

Noon on sunday kills the whole weekend.

I don't think anyone is going to get this one.

[cfpackerfan]

A glob of melted wax?
