Well its August already, damn where does the time go?

This months theme will be Household Objects

Here is an opportunity to find those various items laying around the house and try to be creative with your photo. By using different angles, focal distances, arrangements or lighting try to make those household items interesting.

Anything inanimate you would find in your house (lets keep it clean though ;) ) is fair game. Your grandmother sleeping in her favorite chair is not an inanimate object. ;)

Have Fun!

Max 2 images per contestant.

I was walking down the street, and there was this fridge in this guys front lawn. There was a private property sign up, but I didnt care if he chased me with a shotgun, this freezer was sweet looking....

Here's my "household" object.
I really like how my lamps create this orange glow.

Great stuff, but can you all stop now please? You're leaving me with poor chance of winning. (jk) :grin2:
Funny how this theme inspires a lot of closeup macro-ish shots.

So, getting my second submission in this month is a whisk. Might have to change it later though, as I'm not to pleased with the focus etc.

Here's my shot at the photo theme:

http://www.subtleinc.com/photography/household/darkcolumns.jpg

What I did was set up several cylinder shaped inanimate objects and lined them all up in semi-size order. But in the middle I put a flashlight (turned on) on top of a tictac case so the light would somewhat spread. I then turned off all the lights (except the flashlight in the middle) and there you have my image.

If you want to see what my set up was like in the light here it is (not an entry):
