Random Inanimate Object Week - Photo Phriday!

This week's Photo Phriday comes to us all the way from Taiwan! Well, okay, it's actually a photo taken in Regina, SK but the Random Inanimate Object is from Taiwan. Julia and I got this as a tiny gift for our wedding from a couple friends of our who have made their way over to the Asian quarter. And, really, this little guy is just soooooooooo cute I HAD to take a photo of it. Literally. I had no choice in the matter, that's how cute this is. I almost wish it was animate, 'cept then it wouldn't belong here!

I'd suggest you get one of your own to marvel at but you may have to do some clever searching to find it over here 'cause I doubt you'll find them in any regular stores here. Maybe pokeballs though. K, enough nerdiness for now, bye! ~Until tomorrow!

Random Inanimate Object Week - Day Six

Fence! Yeah, I've got nothing witty to add to this. It's a fence. I took a picture of it. It's here now. There was much rejoicing. Woo.

Will there be something more exciting for Photo Phriday??? I wonder...

Random Inanimate Object Week - Day Five

Here's an interesting Random Inanimate Object that I'm posting as much for my desire to revisit it as it is my desire to have you marvel in its inanimate nature. You see, one of the main exercises of the blog, as well as (more directly) Photo Phriday, is to constantly keep my mind active and thinking about photography. More then that though, it's an attempt to keep improving my photography 'cause, I mean, old photos are nice an' all but you can't always live off of your old work. Photography is as much a live, fluid art form as is any other form of expression and the longer it's been since adding to your collection, the more stale your work gets.

Well, at least that's a good excuse to keep taking more photos anyweather!

That being said though, I've learned a fair bit since I took this photo originally and knowing now what I didn't know then, revisiting this could have some interesting results.. possibly even postable results! ..Though I promise I'll be adding new, original photography long before then.

Hmm.. this entry was less humourous and more informative.. that's no good! Let's end with a joke then!

One day there were three tomato's out walking: A mama tomato, a papa tomato and a baby tomato. As they were walking the baby tomato started to lag behind, so the papa tomato went back to the baby tomato and smushed the baby tomato into the ground saying "Ketchup".

Yeah, that's lame. Let's end this entry. now.

Random Inanimate Object Week - Day Four

The thing with random inanimate objects is, at least for me, a lot of them tend to be boring at least on the large scale. Ergo, as luck would have it, this is also practically a macro week except not quite as not all of these shots are macro. They're random after all. Well, even then not random because then I would have to be random and, let's face it, I'm pretty predictable. But the heart of the idea is there, even if it doesn't work in practice. And besides, who doesn't like looking at more macro photo anyweather?

Oh... just for clarification, yes at one point this wasn't inanimate but, judging by the rust on it, it is very much inanimate now. So YAY for technicalities!

Random Inanimate Object Week - Day Three

In terms of favourites this one, for me, doesn't rank anywhere in the range of my top ten but it really fits the category well. I mean, A chair sitting randomly in some long grass? Heck, if anything is going to save humanity (after a carbon rod) it's a random discarded chair. Of course, I don't have anything to back this up...

Random Inanimate Object Week - Day Two

You'd figure that random inanimate objects would be something littering my photo archives and readily accessible but not really. It turns out I really like taking photos of animate objects and, when they aren't animate, they aren't random either. Doesn't that just beat all. Why it almost looks like I'll have to take some different, exciting photos to entertain you then? Gawd, how annoying!

...That's also the problem with the internet and blogging, there is no easy way to confirm I was sarcastic in that last sentence without directly stating it in some manner. C'est la vie, eh?

Random Inanimate Object Week - Day One

That's right, it's time for everyone favourite type of inanimate objects: Random! Unfortunately I have no photos of carbon rods, so if you're expecting that you'll have to look elsewhere. Otherwise though, it's the perfect time for you to stare in awe and wonder at... NAILS. OOooo. So deep. So meaningful. So.. Inanimate.

Mission Accomplished!

(Yes, I pulled a Dubya, I said 'it' at the beginning, not the end..)
