As Hope says, I won by a squeak, which doesn't surprise me considering how great all the finalists were - i thought Dawn had it in the bag :o) which leads me seamlessly to my choice for the next mundane challenge - TEABAG (in the singular or plural)
A bit of a tea addict myself, picking this object makes me smile imagining you lot in the early hours sipping your cuppa and eyeing your box of teabags in a dozy but predatory fashion - but, before you grab the camera & head off for the kitchen, read below for more details:
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!
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!
The challenge officially STARTS Thursday 17th October and ENDS on Friday 25th October. I'll then pick the finalists shortly after this date and voting will begin :o)
Don't forget that Hope will be also be launching the ABSTRACT challenge - read her post for details and some idea of the difference between the challenges
Feel free to POST YOUR ENTRIES ONTO THIS THREAD as well, as inspiration for others!
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, button, key, coin, ballpoint pen, shoe, glass, plastic bag, thread, books, lightbulb, toilet paper, envelopes & door handle.
@bill_fe@kaesebiscuit@mzzhope@kali66@sianipops oh dear - i have clearly labelled myself as a low quality tea drinker with this bag business Bill - maybe you could make the leaves look like they burst out of a bag kali and yes Mr Fromage Biscuit watch the coffee drinkers go pale !! Bigger the mug the better Nia and Tazo Awake sounds like a tazer shot of tanine Hope !
