What makes these round- shaped protruding things “Extraordinary out of the Ordinary” is that they are actually air-cons! They intrigued me at first sight and initially I thought that they are part of the design for the wall. But when I went to took pictures of them, I felt cool air coming out of them. Never have I thought that air-cons could be so creatively designed to complement the wall of the building. Think Out of the Box. Even ordinary objects could be extraordinary!

Foreground Background Relationship-Creates depth
The Rule of Thirds- The subject that I want viewers to notice is not at the centre of the photograph.
This is my Ordinary Object photo. taken in 3 x 5 in 3 inch side. i did this picture because i like soap.
Many of Goryeo period spoons like this one feature a curved handle that splits into a jagged fishtail design. This fishtail design is not unique to Korea; it was also widely used in the area under the rule of two non-Han Chinese states: Liao (907–1125) and Jin (1115–1234). These seemingly ordinary objects testify to exciting material interactions between the Goryeo dynasty and non-Han Chinese northern states, which were often omitted from the official records.

Bronze spoons are the most common burial item. Scholars have proposed that toward the end of the 14th century, Koreans enjoyed meat-based soups more than any other dishes, explaining why spoons became common household items as well as burial goods.

This project called for me to turn an ordinary object into something extraordinary. I chose to use elastic bands as I thought that their strength and flexibility had a lot of potential. This image shows the final outcome of this project, I created strips of elastic bands and stretched them across a room the create the stripes of the American flag. The setting was also important as I wanted to use a deserted/run down scene to portray how a growing feeling of negativity towards the USA.

There are several fun displays that use ordinary objects in unique ways. I was admonished to get this dude's name right when captioning the photo. So, everyone - meet Clay :)
I like taking ordinary objects and transforming/disguising their original state. A case of serendipity I decided to capture
This image shows texture of ordinary objects, trees. I did this by focusing on the leaves of the trees to highlight the bright pink.
This was one of my images for project 4. It was intended to isolate the shapes and lines in an ordinary object.
Charming museum that tells the tale of everyday life. Focussing on everyday themes like birth, marriage or death, the museum exhibits ordinary objects, photo's and films in a poetic and thoughtful fashion.
The objective of this picture was pretty vague. I wanted to capture the things people don't really pay attention to. I like to capture them in a way that people don't really see it. It gives you a different view on ordinary things. That's why I always use worms eye view because you see details in ordinary objects that you don't see when you look at them.
Title:Potted Mischiefs - The Bashful Twins
Artist:Emerie Bell
Size:2.5" x 4.5"
Medium:Felt/clay
This artwork is part of Bear and Bird New York’s “Strange Fibers” Art Exhibition. On exhibit May 9 - July 6, 2025.
This exhibition features the Strange Fiber Creations of Emerie Bell • Ingrid Tiffe • Jennifer Strunge • Joanna Fields • Laurie E. Snell • Mallory Zondag Sadie Levine • Susi Brox Nilsen and Ulises Farinas
About the artist: Emerie Bell is based in Charlton, New York and enjoys riding their Electric Unicycle and reading in their spare time. They can be found around the Capital Region vending their creations. “As a kid, I was always fascinated by the odd trinkets of the ISpy books, and how they brought a shine to such ordinary objects. Being a collector of baubles myself, that only grew tenfold when I was introduced to blind boxes. I like to call my art a happy marriage between the two; one of a kind treasures that make the mundane a little more whimsical, with that surprise element!” @corporeal_creatures
A vibrant mural of sea turtles comes to life on the side of a shipping container, bringing a splash of the ocean to an urban setting. Three artists work diligently, their brushes moving across the surface, adding depth and detail to the underwater scene. The scene captures a moment of creative energy, where art transforms an ordinary object into a captivating piece. It's a testament to the power of art to bring beauty and nature to unexpected places.
May Flickr Scavenger Challenge #17. Ordinary objects may be hard to recognize when the PoV is looking straight down.

Okay so not hard to recognize but so pretty!

A- i took it at straight on angle and zoomed in really close
C- centered the log because i wanted it to be the main focus
I- interesting because its a different look at an ordinary object
T- i didn't use anything besides the settings of the camera
Believe it or not, this IS a sculpture, by artist Roy McMakin. The concrete bench, the chairs in the background, and the storage box are all part of it.
"But it looks just like an ordinary bench," you say? Well, that's the artist's intention. He has a sense of humor, and he often creates public art out of ordinary objects, where you have to look closely at it to realize it's also a sculpture.
In this case, McMakin has provided visitors to the park with a piece of humorous art, as well as a place to sit and enjoy the views.

This shows how i experimented to try to remove the frosted effect from the edges the two images on the left show a cast that has had nothing happen to it, but the ones on the right i put a small amount of clear wood varnish on it and it helped to remove some of the frosted effect.
Frank Hallam's RV photos showed how ordinary objects can look downright eerie when the lighting is an unnatural hue. In this reshoot of 3A on "mood," I explored this idea of unnatural light adjusting the Kelvin reading or moving into the far corners of the color grid. It helped that this garden light slowly changed colors during each exposure.
This image of a traffic light, accidentally captured on a phone, mirrors the spontaneous, unplanned moments in Jesper Bergquist's everyday life. Just as the photo catches an ordinary object in an unexpected way, Jesper might find himself noticing random details during his daily routines, reflecting a quiet appreciation for the unnoticed and unscripted moments that give life its unique rhythm.
