... thought it might be fun.

Answer doesn't have to be too specific, as long as it's close etc. First bunch isn't too hard I hope - I'll add more when most or all of a bunch have been guessed - they'll get steadily harder, until I run out of ideas for object pictures. heh

 

1. 2. 3. 4.

Eh, I'll guess that the second un's a lighter, right? It's got the little teeth for the flint.

Neat thread idea!

 

The first pic is exotic tree bark?

Lighter - correct.

Tree bark - no, but sort of in the ballpark.

Is the first one a pine cone?

Mushrooms, I think.

Pinecone sounds good to me. The third one looks like a carpet cross-section.

Is #4 one of them jug of water that go on a water cooler (on its side)?

The first one's definitely a pinecone. The third seems to have a leather exterior, so I'm guessing the inside of a sofa or chair? As for the last, the shape somewhat reminds me of a retainer, but the air bubbles seem more reminiscent of those mats you put down for traction in a shower.

the first one looks like barnicals. or however you spell it......

Is the first one a pine cone?

Check.

 

Is #4 one of them jug of water that go on a water cooler (on its side)?

Close enough. 2.5 gallon spring water container for the fridge.

 

The third one looks like a carpet cross-section.

No, but it is kind of like a cross-section view of something ... and smaller than a sofa.

 

Since there's only that one left, here's another four.

 

5. 6.

7. 8.

 

.. I'm finding it difficult to think of odd angles or ways of looking at things - good practice for me. :D

 

Edit: why won't the pics stay in formation this time, darnit, heh

Nr. 6 is styrofoam. :D

 

 

Edit: Ofc i meant Nr. 6.

Edited April 30, 200718 yr by Accept

number 6 is that mushy material you use in packages.. (in Danish it's called Flamingo) - (Edit: Styrofoam apperantly in English)

 

the things in number 8 are the plastic ends of a comb for sure.

 

I'm guessing that number 5 is the tip of a pen.. and number 7 is some kind of reptile's eye..

Styrofoam/packaging, check.

It's not a comb specifically but close enough.

 

Hmm....time to make some harder ones. :D

number 8 is a hair brush

nr 8 is a hydrolic sheet metal press.

 

I can't tell any of them

no. 7 appears to be the bottom of a green glass bottle. Rolling rock?

This would make a great round in pub quizzes.

Hairbrush, yeah.

Glass bottle, spot on, good guess. It's actually a shot taken through the open top of the bottle, straight down, focusing on the bottom glass. And it's a Moosehead.

Hairbrush, yeah.

 

Hairbrush.. comb..

 

damn! I blame my ever decreasing English vocabulary!!

Number 5 is a glass.

 

edit: No. Rosbjerg is right. It's a pen.

Yes, sorry, missed that reply - #5 is a ballpoint pen.
