Out of 22 comments, only 5 guessed correctly. 1 said id looked like what it is, but guessed something else.

Score still not where I thought it would be.

I have a hunch about Achoo's photo, will be interested to see if I'm right...

Score holding at 6.6, hope it doesn't take the plunge as it usually does when I post, LOL.

I am going through all the ones I thought looked like flowers and I am re-analyzing them! DrAchoo's photo is like a second challenge in and of itself to find it and figure what it is.

Had a few more flower comments and then someone who came pretty darn close (but not quite). :P

I'll reaffirm the one hint that someone else shot the same object.

Looks like noraneko and I are dancing. My score really varies between 6.6 and 6.75. I'm currently at the low end.

Unfortunately, you are currently leading in our little tango. Was at 6.62 and I suddenly got hit by a bomb and it went back down to 6.58. And I still think I know which one is yours, Doc :-) Or a good hunch, anyway.

Why is that unfortunate? ;)

Congrats to kteach who got about as close as I could expect anybody to get. Gold star for her!

Thanks for the comments everyone :)
This turned out much better than I expected considering the really low start.

It's really a so much simpler setup than most people think, but so not easy to capture. I've attempted this shoot more than any other over the past few months, and this one was the best. I rarely do reshoots but can't get bored of this one till I get the results I want, which I almost did this time. My choice of available lighting might be the hindrance.

For those that left guesses:

Quigley: sorry, no
WriteHeart: sorry, no
focuspoint: almost there, but no cigar ;)
KarenNfld: creative guess, but not exactly.
photobuddy: nope
lilacbutterfly: got it half right
Dona_k: sorry, no
boyd2000: I can see how it might look like it, but nope.
higgledy: fun guess, but no.
xianart: sorry, no
vtruan: sorry, no
landcamera: sorry, no, but fun guess.
Ristyz: sorry, no
Geocide: also very close, but not exactly
06/22/2007 11:34:49 PM · #165
this has been a fun Challenge. I'm delighted by all the
guesswork going on.

4 out of 19 guessed correctly. While there is no way they
could actually identify the object(s), they guessed the
material(s)used. And that was difficult enough.
06/23/2007 12:39:42 AM · #166
14 out of 26 have it right. I didn't fool too many of you! :) The other image like mine helped a few people.
Score is at 5.9. I am only about halfway through the voting on this one. Time for bed! Zzzz
06/23/2007 05:04:15 AM · #167
Just received this comment: "a metric swamp grass separator?" - I like the idea, taterbug. Definitely raised a smile!
06/23/2007 05:37:34 AM · #168
that's cool, but was I right? :-)
06/23/2007 06:31:26 AM · #169
Ummm, well, not quite... that said, I can't in all honesty say i have ever tried to use it as a metric swamp grass separator - it may work very well....

How do you know who's photo is who's? Isn't it supposed to be a secret....?

Yes, it is, but DrAchoo said everyone guessed that his was a flower....so all she had to do was go back to every photo she guessed was a flower and look at it again and guess something different.
06/23/2007 10:12:02 AM · #172
Wow. What a total bunch of shit.
06/23/2007 12:44:23 PM · #173
On a lighter note...just got a 3. People are getting ticked because they can't tell what it is..and many THINK they know but are wrong. Muaaahahahaha!
06/23/2007 12:53:32 PM · #174
I am almost done guessing on them all (only 18% left) but I am finding I can't figure about 50% of them, you guys are good!

Also, I have received over 50 comments!!!!!!! Thank you, that's so cool!! And most of you are right. I will post the last 20 guesses to let you know who is right (it will take just a minute though because there are so many).

06/23/2007 01:09:09 PM · #175
