    Give us one clue: Is it natural or manmade?

    Mike,

    I like old hub caps myself. Just a guess. What about you?

    Love the concentric circles...

    Looks like a wood carving of some sort.

    Take as many guesses as you like. A hint, it's man made.

    Mike,

    When was the last time you've been to Vegas?

    No Vegas, this was something that is part of my house. I shot a bunch of these abstracts from this subject.

    Mike,

    Great detail and texture with a colorful sheen in the second clue. Love the graphic nature of this image. Could you back up about 10 ' please. Just kidding...

    The Fuji S5 is a crop camera if I remember correctly. So can I ask what the magnification is on this image?
    I had this contest with my photo instructor years ago and the class could not guess. You're much better than I am at this. We may need more clues.

    Can you eat or drink from it?

    I shot this with the Sigma 180 and the size of this is about 3"X4", It's part of something connected to my house.

    Mike,

    Is it attached to your door or a decorative part of the house?

    Bruce,

    Mike is very clever and I'm not thinking visual abstracts...

    Okay all. Charles was closest. I was shooting some flowers in my foyer because it has a lot of nice light there, and I notive all these cool swirling patterns in the stained glass of my front door. I shot a few different comps and since the glass is some what transparent it allowed for different colors in the patterens from the sky, grass, trees, houses, etc.

    Mike,

    Thanks for the final answer. I like doing this. It definitely helps me to think more visually.

    You're the best....
