099/365 - Jim - What is it?

( f/32 105mm ISO 200 Nikon D300 )
Theme is macro guess. I started having fun with this and took several pictures that I would like people to guess, so I made a little collage of them. For the top 2 photos I just used the 105mm macro lens and put the subject as close as I could. For the bottom 2 photos, I put my 50mm lens in front of my 105mm lens with the faces toward each other. This is a macro trick and can get you incredibly close! So make your guesses in the comments and I will let you know if any of them are correct.

money, coffee bean?

Jim said...

yes, money, but do you know exactly?

coffee bean is correct.

Carol said...

Yeah I was going to guess money too, but didn't know the coffee bean.

Carol said...

The other two look like the bottoms of a shoe or something.

Heather said...

looks like andrew jackson's eye from a $20 bill and a coffee bean

Jim said...

It's not a $20. It did come from a newer style bill.

Hi, I'm Amber. said...

I hate those stupid beans you just have to grind them what happened to folgers, it's good.

Courtney said...

I that eye on the back of a one?

Jim said...

The eye is Lincoln on the new $5 bill. I learned his eye color was blueish green.

A clue for #1: You'll flip when you find out what it is. You likely see one of these almost every day.

A clue for #2: An olympian uses this to score.

The second picture looks like a ping pong paddle.

Jim said...

Yep, that is a ping pong paddle.

joyce said...

Okay...is the first one a coin, like a penny or quarter or one of those?

Heather said...

the first one looks like some type of bottle opener

Jim said...

That is kind of close. It is actually a tab on soda can, so more of a can opener :)

1. bathroom part (like a sink part) 2. gripper for a can (to open it) 3. G. WAshington's eye
4. coffee bean

A student helped me and got most of these....I do not have an eye for it.
