Photo Hunter - Tiny


The theme of this week is Tiny.
This is the second time I'm taking part in Photo Hunter. So please comment. Thank you.

When I first saw the theme, immediately, I got a few ideas of what photo to take in my mind. But after thinking for some time, I felt that the ideas I got were quite common and no creativity. So, I have to think about other ideas.

Tiny is smaller than small, which makes my task tougher. So I decided to check dictionary hoping that I can get some inspiration on what to shoot. And guess what? I really did. Those words in the dictionary itself are tiny enough to suit the theme "tiny".

So here are 2 shots on the word "tiny" found in 2 dictionaries.


And when something is tiny, a magnifying glass or a microscope will be used in order to see it clearly. So this is a shot through a small magnifying glass.


Another idea I got is Electronic Circuit Boards.


I know posting 6 photos is quite a lot, but when I see at these photos which I think I had did better than I had expected, it will be quite a waste if I don't post them up. So do bear with me.

Do drop a comment for me.
Thank you.
Have a great weekend to everyone.
Cheers.

Nice ideas and nice shots. I think this week's Photo Hunt is kind of hard so post as many photos as you want. Happy Photo Hunt!

A very unique way to present TINY using the word itself. The circuit board looks cool too. Great shots. Wishing you a calm, happy and lovely weekend! http://crizlai.blogspot.com/2007/07/photo-hunters-tiny.html

The circuit boards remind me of arial shots of the suburbs from an airplane. Cool!

Hey, how interesting for me to see our English words in another translation dictionary. How creative to take a photo with a magnifying glass. Oh, and those circuits are tiny too! I really enjoyed your photos. Welcome to the Photo Hunters!

Barbara H. said...

Great job! The older I get, the tinier those words look. :-) And the tinier electronic things seem to get.

FRIDAY'S CHILD said...

jmb said...

Excellent shots for the theme. I loved the development of the theme and post them all, why not?

Surfergirl said...

i used to have one of those very very compact and small english chinese dictionaries and man are they TINY! they are almost a pain in the EYES to read ;)

yenjai.net said...

Haha. You really take trouble to fit into the theme

crazy working mom said...

Neat ideas. :)

Thanks for dropping by. Glad you're participating in the SPH.

meeyauw said...

I especially enjoyed the circuit board shots. It is fascinating what those tiny circuits can do!

eastcoastlife said...

Wah! So many ideas on the theme! :)
Welcome to Photo Hunters!

K.Kim said...

I like the shot with the magnifying glass. Good idea, this one.

klthomps said...

Those are great photos! I especially like the dictionary photos. Of course it doesn't matter if the words are tiny or not...I still can't read it! :-)

"When I first saw the theme, immediately, I got a few ideas of what photo to take in my mind."

I, OTOH, drew a blank for some time! ;b

Cats~Goats~Quotes said...

I like the word tiny in the dictionary!
Good photos!!

Liz said...

Those are very unusual takes on the theme - and very good. Of course, a circuit board is amazingly small - especially compared to what it can do.

MonkeyWong said...
