Just a little fun. While the picture is for real, I thought it might be an interesting twist on shameless self-promotion to have you MMers out there guess what it is a picture of. Take a look at the image in my portfolio entitled "Can You See It" and enter either a comment there or a message in the thread here as to what it is. While the recompression has rendered it pretty fuzzy, I think it's still guessable. I'll post the answer in a day or two. I've shown this image (as a print) to many people and only one has ever guessed properly. Just so you know: other than to increase the saturation, this is the image as it came off the camera. Don't be afraid to be wrong...Like I said, only one person has ever guessed right. And please don't ridicule others' guesses. Thanks and good luck! ...todd Jul 14 05 10:41 am Link Any hints? A water slide? A bottle of something, taken from underneath? Jul 14 05 12:40 pm Link One hint: There are no body fluids depicted in this image. And no "Am I getting warmer?s" will be honored ;-) Jul 14 05 12:49 pm Link Either an extreme closeup of a Red LED or a lollipop. Jul 14 05 04:30 pm Link A magic 8 Ball.... Hopefully I am not dillusional...hehe So...whats the prize for guessing it right....hmmmm Jul 14 05 04:34 pm Link It is a cracked egg, sunny side up. ![]() Jul 14 05 04:36 pm Link Posted by ErinTheArtist: Dunno..

Sticking his tongue out as viewed through the portal of a red submarine? Jul 14 05 04:54 pm Link Turn head clockwise to the left. You might see it!! Maybe its the medicine. Jul 14 05 04:55 pm Link Clockwise to the left? hmmmmm.... Jul 14 05 04:57 pm Link Posted by photog2b: Thanks. I just broke my head trying to do that. Jul 14 05 05:13 pm Link You probably deserved it. I have been watching your other posts. =o) Jul 14 05 05:15 pm Link There've been some interesting guesses so far, and two people are on the right track. (But I'm not saying which two... mwahahahahaha). I do want to reiterate something that a lot of you may have missed from the first post: [i]the colors you see are the colors they are[i]. I boosted the saturation. That's it. Jul 14 05 05:15 pm Link So now you tell us.. Jul 14 05 05:17 pm Link Something red and melty. Jul 14 05 05:21 pm Link Ok...how about the magic date ball....it's pink and not black...and if you boosted the saturation in photoshop...it could possibly be red. I dunno...I give up!! Phew!! Jul 14 05 05:47 pm Link Okay okay. I'm not willing to divulge the answer yet, but later on this evening I'll shout out the posts of the peeps on the right track :-) Jul 14 05 06:07 pm Link I already know i'm right. Jul 14 05 06:27 pm Link Posted by Shelly Rae: Hmmm.... I'd say that you were a material girl.... Posted by XtremeArtists: No, but you're showing considerable enLIGHTenment with this guess. Jul 14 05 08:55 pm Link A light bulb? halogen light from the side, macro? Jul 14 05 09:01 pm Link Totally...I light bulb. Maybe like one of those christmas tree lights.

Jul 14 05 10:09 pm Link Posted by Brian Diaz: When I was in college we played this game while waiting in line for ... well, whatever we happened to be waiting in line for called Botticelli. Someone thought of the name of a person, living or dead, real or fictional, and the rest tried to guess who it is. Jul 14 05 10:22 pm Link That game's a lot easier when you have an Internet Machine in front of you, huh? Jul 14 05 11:06 pm Link Posted by Brian Diaz: Well, you did provide the link. :-) Google would have filled in the blank if you hadn't already. Jul 14 05 11:11 pm Link I have to admit that I googled it, just to make sure. His name was part of a Jeopardy! clue yesterday or the day before, though ![]() Jul 14 05 11:34 pm Link Posted by Brian Diaz: One of those things you'd never otherwise know. I didn't read the entire page, I just hope he died a wealthy man. Jul 14 05 11:37 pm Link We give up! Jul 15 05 09:06 am Link Posted by XtremeArtists: Posted by photog2b: Thanks. I just broke my head trying to do that. Wow, clumsy AND unimaginative. Maybe you give up, but isn't it a bit presumptious of you to speak for the whole group? Oh wait, you ARE presumptious. Jul 15 05 09:13 am Link Looks like Xtreme "artists" dad's delivery room shot. Jul 15 05 09:16 am Link I give up too.... didn't sleep last night just thinking about it. Jul 15 05 09:19 am Link Posted by Mystic 7: If you want to attack me all over the forums, you are just going to regret it. Jul 15 05 09:21 am Link Posted by Mystic 7: Posted by XtremeArtists: Posted by photog2b: Thanks. I just broke my head trying to do that. Wow, clumsy AND unimaginative. Maybe you give up, but isn't it a bit presumptious of you to speak for the whole group? Oh wait, you ARE presumptious. Clockwise to the left is an oxymoron. I'm sure you've heard part of that word before. Jul 15 05 09:25 am Link Please tell me its not pictures from your latest Colonoscopy hehe Jul 15 05 09:29 am Link Posted by Kevin Rodgers: from sometime yesterday...
