Ordinary Objects are Beautiful ~ Take The Challenge

I like simple. I find ordinary objects beautiful. I love abstract and minimalism and I find it hard to resist grabbing shots throughout the day of things that most people don’t even notice.

Here is the challenge:

Starting this week, I will post one new photograph each week of an ordinary object on social media and publish the pics collected each month on a blog post. Who wants to join me in this challenge?

Here are some random images I shot in recent months to serve as inspiration…

This is a great idea Valerie. I had been thinking about doing some sort of project, so I’ll join as soon as I have my new camera with 50mm lens. We should use the same hashtag so we can follow eachothers work on social media.

Hi Valerie,

Have a nice day!

I am Kirk Cornelio from Cebu, Philippines.

I wish I could go with you someday in your street photography session. These pictures are awesome even though they are ordinary objects. You inspired me about this one.

Take care and God bless always.

Keep shooting!

Kirk Cornelio

🙂 funny to see that now, I’ve had exactly the same challenge that I took on myself, but I limited it to my house and garden: http://stampsy.com/user/19762/latest/9447 take a look and tell me what you think (except that it’s very dark, I know, it was intended).

Really like your shots, especially with the pans behind the window.

  I had thought of making it limited to household items but this is challenging for a lot of people and I wanted to make it more appealing to start with. Now it’s up to each photographer to tailor the challenge to their needs.

  Unfortunately, that would be too much to manage… It’s just a challenge for every to do on their own. Sometimes all it takes is a little push to create some magic!
  Good luck
