James Hill > 20090810 - Touch of gold for Tuesday.

Day three of the household abstracts.  This one is a cheat.  I got sidetracked yesterday and didn't get to shoot what I had planned, so this is another view of the same item from Monday.

I've added a wider view to reveal the items seen in these last two shots, and I'll add some more a little later.
James Hill > 20090810 - Monday's Macro Mayhem

Second in a week-long series of abstracts from everyday household items.  I had a lot of fun with this subject.  I have no idea exactly what it's used for (probably very little considering the tag was still on it) but I thought it made for a pretty neat time tunnel or electromagnetic accelerator.  Beware of the orbs!

I've posted a wide shot that should shed some light on the subject of Sunday's Stainless Steel Triptych.  I'll post a few followup shots of this one with tomorrows post, including my first alternate.
James Hill > 20090809 - Sunday's Stainless Steel Triptych

First in a series of abstracts for the week.  All images will be everyday household items, viewed from a slightly different perspective.  I'll add a revealing shot with followup notes into a separate gallery on the following day.
James Hill > What is it?

Hints:
1) It's food.  I ate it right after shooting it.
2) The colors are accurate, and the OOF highlights are from the texture of it's surface.
3)  It's a product made from 3 ingredients, by a US company with a 3 letter name.
4) This is a macro, so the size of what you're looking at is roughly the size of the camera sensor.
5) The heat from the lamp made it even more delicious.
6) I added a little wider view here.  It's out of focus unintentionally, but I didn't want to make things too easy.

Well, dirkster guessed correctly, despite having "no clue" and was actually right on both accounts.  It was a Utz brand Kettle Classics Dark Russet potato chip, and it's color comes from the natural sugars present in Russet potatoes which caramelizes when cooked.  One of my favorite junk food snacks.
