Who'd have thought... by marlboromaam

Who'd have thought...

A simple vegetable steamer could be so much fun to shoot?! Got my stove knobs through a hole or two and even got some nice bokeh! Hmmm? Gotta admit - some of these challenges push you to do the abnormal which forces you to see things in many different ways.
Wow, what a great shot and so creative. How did you get the photos on the left side? You are so right, this is pushing us to do things we have not thought of and to see things differently. Are we supposed to include one shot with yellow this week, or get as many as we can in the week? I think I missed something. A Fav for me.

fantastic,,well done!
January 12th, 2012  
Super cool! I love how this turned out!
January 12th, 2012  
@darsphotos Thank you, Darlene! Basically, I just created a collage with one being the background and the others on top. I'm not really sure about the number of photos. The discussion topic is in "Themes and Competitions"... I know I've seen others do more than one. I guess that's up to you. LOL! Thank you for the fav! I'd never have thought that!
January 12th, 2012  
This is great! Love that you did a collage! Well done indeed!

@melissapike LOL! Thank you, Melissa! It's interesting, I'll say that!
January 12th, 2012  
@luvs2scuba2 Thank you, Elaine! It was sort of funny going through the kitchen looking for something to shoot! If some one had seen me, no telling what they would've thought! LOL!

Love the collage and the great idea, Maggie. Some of the most mundane items make the most fabulous photos. Great creativity here. Love the yellow glow . . you're right, some of these themes are fun to play around with. :)
January 12th, 2012  
@karenann Thank you, ma'am! My stove top light gives off a nice yellow glow for this but, I did push up the yellow tones a tad more. I might have to find something else to play around with. LOL!
January 12th, 2012  
Very fun!! I really like it! Well done Maggie!
January 12th, 2012  
@heidievans73 Thank you! I'm glad you do... it's not what I would normally want to shoot! LOL!

@msk1p2 Thank ya, ma'am!
January 12th, 2012  
So simple yet so dynamic! I like how you included the three photographs to the side giving us different viewpoints of the little strainer circles plus circles of bokeh. You have great talent in composition!
January 12th, 2012  
@cjphoto Wow! Chris, you are too kind with your comments! Make me blush! LOL!
January 12th, 2012  
Maggie this is very creative, very clever and a superb collage. The yellow on black works well.

I've not really done any abstract work on my 365, but this image is inspiring me to try some.

I'm going to have to get my 'abstract image' eye working this weekend, to see if I can match your talent :)

Super shot Maggie and one that I must +FAV :)
January 12th, 2012  
How creative and fun! Hey, what is a pinning?
January 12th, 2012  
Love it.

@lornavale Thank you, Barb!
January 12th, 2012  
@phil_howcroft You are too kind! LOL! This was for the yellow abstract theme. I don't normally even try these themes but, what the heck! Gave it a go! Get that "abstract image" eye going and let's see some shots, and you can easily out do me! Funny! Thank you for the fav, the view and most of all, for your nice comments!
January 13th, 2012  
You are really showing your creativity now!

@famousamos @chaostheater Thank you very much for the view and the comments!
January 13th, 2012  
Ooh, you are so creative! Very cool shot! I think I see the word "CLEAN" in one of those little holes. I wonder what it is? I like big picture the best. I feel like I'm lurking and spying in your kitchen. 8D
January 13th, 2012  
@myautofocuslife Thank you, Livia! You did see the word "clean" on my stove's oven dial. Good eye!
January 13th, 2012  
Great shot. Love the colours. The yellow works so well against the black.
January 13th, 2012  
Isn't that great! Before this project I would have thought someone was crazy taking shots of kitchen utensils! I love it! This is a fantastic shot!
January 13th, 2012  
Great shots and collage. Black and yellow polka dots!
January 13th, 2012  
Very creative and abstract work. Nice collage.

@orangecrush LOL! I thought I was crazy, Jerry! It's still crazy to me, but a fun kind of crazy! Thank you for your comments!
January 13th, 2012  
@loniemay Thank you! I gave the "yellow abstract" theme a shot!
January 13th, 2012  
@denisedaly Thank you, Denise! Appreciate your lovely comments!
January 13th, 2012  
@marlboromaam _ I have never heard of that- do you have an iphone? I can send you the pic via email with a watermark- :) Have a good one!
January 13th, 2012  
@hillcrest ??? No, I don't have an iPhone. Can't afford the monthly plans for one. That's okay though! I'd love to pin all of my fav pics of others to my boards, but it's just not possible. It's fun to see all the FB likes and how many times they get repinned.
January 13th, 2012  
Well this is impressive! I dig those colours too and the collage really works. Fav!
January 13th, 2012  
very creative! I love that you thought to look through it to take your picture.

January 14th, 2012  
@urvid Thank you very much! Not a thing you'd really choose to take a picture of. LOL!
January 14th, 2012  
@marlboromaam i wouldn't have thought of it...but your out-of-the-box thinking surely made Art out of it :) It's refreshing to see things out of the ordinary.
January 14th, 2012  
@urvid Thank you! It was for the yellow2 abstract theme. There's also the yellow2 theme. I don't normally attempt to do these themes. Don't know why I did this time. ???
January 14th, 2012
