Wordless (or is it?)

So y’all – no words from me to explain my pics, but how about you guess what these are (just leave your guesses in the comments section). And please don’t tell me the first photo is “bubbles”. I need specifics, people. Specifics!

(I’m turning off automatic comments approval, but will approve them all within 24 hours.)

    One hour after posting this and the best yet is 3 out of 5 … Although different people have guessed all the photos, one person hasn’t got them all correct. (Keep on guessing then.)

    Thanks for stopping by and taking a guess at my blog. You were the first to get it right, clearly better than I did here. Have a great day.

    Hey there! That first bubble photo is stunning beyond stunning!!!!
    1. A clay/pottery pot or bowl or garden ball. (The type that I hate touching!) Or a fire-oven-baked bread, but I am going with the clay/pottery.
    2. “met ‘n stertjie van agter en ‘n stertjie van voor”
    3. Type writer keys,
    4. A rock that really looks like a hippo, but a rock none the less.
    5. A wine glass, I am actually leaning more to a martine-type glass, caught in good light!

    These are fantastic images-whatever they are! These are my “guesses”. First one – coke (was going to say badly made coffee!), second, and elephant? Third -well it LOOKS like an old typewriter but with those double digit numbers? Old cash register? The next, a hippo (not going to try to spell it!). The last is hard- looking up at the sun through drops of water??? It was fun trying, anyway:)

    Thank you for playing everyone – I hope you had fun with this “Wordless” post … (I chuckled at some of the answers). Most of you guessed them, but if you’d like to check on your answers, here they are:
    1. Coffee
    2. A very old elephant’s behind (here’s her front end: http://www.flickr.com/photos/roobo/7786475540/)
    3. An antique cash register’s (or “till” as we call it in South Africa) keys
    4. A hippo’s back (If it were an elephant or rhino as some of you suggested, I would have been worried)
    5. A cold drink glass with ice (You can see it in focus here: http://roobo69.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/120730-d3p_4476.jpg)

    Oh my what a great idea.

  24. I definitely see a latte (to be specific) and an elephant’s bottom. LOL. I love macro photography. I definitely need a macro lens. Until then, it’s the nifty 50 for me. (Although I definitely cannot get that close!)
