Mundane Challenge #16 - Key

May 12th, 2013
Hello everyone!!! =)))

Its my turn to host new mundane challenge and given my obsession with keys the object of this challenge was pretty obvious (at least to me =))))

Here's a little story about the mundane challenge for those who don't know

The mundane theme was started by Aaron @grizzlyghost, for those of us who may have lost inspiration. He suggested we take an ordinary, boring object and start shooting it. Turn the ordinary into the extraordinary!

The mundane object for this challenge is going to be ta-dah! - KEY.

You are free to use any photographic technique you like to capture this everyday object. The only rule; there can be no question the object of the challenge is the star!

You have from now until the end of Sunday, May 19th to get your photos. I will post 5 finalists for voting on Monday, May 20th. Please TAG photos "mundane-key" and don't forget to share your entries on this thread. The winner gets to host the next challenge. Ah, one more thing, pictures have to be taken within timeframe provided, i.e. from 12th to 19th of May =)

The following is a list of objects used so far for the challenge: toothbrush, screwdriver, veggie peeler, bar of soap, scissors, electrical plug, paperclip, jar, language, cardboard, toothpick, hex key, hair comb, screw and button. (thank you Leah @lkread for providing the list in the previous mundane post =)))

Have fun!!! =))))
