It's like on the news where the lady saw Elvis's face in her bowl of Oatmeal!!
This was a little harder than I thought it would be. I see something with a face in it then take a picture of it and it doesn't look the same. It really makes you think how we see things differently. We have two eyes and an imagination and the camera has only one eye. I would say to Ruth "Look at this cool face in this pot" and she says "Where?". Well if you hold it up here and look for the eyes right here and turn it a little bit-----------------------Huh!! I learned to watch the lighting and perspective to get you to see what I see. Hope you all had fun.

| STOVEBOT It didn't look right after I took the pic.I tried blurring this like squinting your eyes but it didn't help. Also hard to light. I put the juicer hat on top. |

| Sugar canister Robot This is one I worked on. After I took the pic it looked like a jar of sugar. That's not what I saw, so I added the red in the handle, swished the sugar to the front, staged some black objects on each side to make the eyes show up, and added black background. |

| USB cable snake--another hard to light. I hand held it and turned it all different ways to get the right lighting for the mouth. |

| Stone face grin----Pottery work in holder upside down |
 |
| Happy Coke tab |
 |
| Cabinet hinge monster |
 |
| Grumpy dresser drawer |
 |
| Deadbolt smile |
 |
| Screaming thermostat--sideways |
 |
| Cell phone smirk |
 |
| Sad Remote--- hard to crop just right. Looks better from across the room. ???? |
WOWIE ZOWIE....this assignment really brought out the creativity in everyone. These are super fantastic Burr. I sure wasn't thinking of turning things on their side or upside down - guess my own "creativity" was a little lacking on this one. At any rate - I liked Stone Face Grin as my #1 fave and the cabinet hinge as my other #1.5 fave! :-)
ReplyDeleteHow fun, and you found so many around the house - Bravo!! They're all fantastic!
ReplyDeleteNow I know why you picked this assignment Burr....You have vision..Those are absolutely terrific, every one of them....what a great eye you have just to be able so look around and see those faces everywhere.....although I liked them all my favorite was the sugar jar, it just seemed to have such clarity and kind of stood out to my eye!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy coke tab and stovebot were my favs but it was hard to choose. you were very creative and I liked all the captions explaining each expression, great work! they all made me smile.
ReplyDeleteI LIKE THE SUGAR CANISTER THE BEST, ALL ARE GREAT, I DID HAVE A LOT OF FUN WITH THIS ONE
ReplyDeleteBurr, your faces have such personality! Love your macro shots- the coke tab, usb, deadbolt, key, thermostat- your framing and orientation really gave these inanimate objects life. The sugar canister is the granddaddy- great job on all of them and great assignment!
