ok so i like to play around a bit with the ole digital camera. some of the people i know upload their stuff to these amateur type websites where the other members rate their work and etc etc. pretty cool sites, and a lot of average joe hobby photographers get good exposure out there. i think on some of the sites you can even set it so people can buy prints if you'd allow it and all that.

so i've played around with them, and its fun. but now i want to do completely dumb! i want to go to the zoo or something take extreme closeups of stuff like a pile of elephant shit, or of a meerkat's butthole.

so i am looking for help compiling a list of things that i can photograph up close, so close that you can't tell what it is. and these photos will hopefully look cool (like lots of extreme closeups do). please give me ideas of disgusting things that i can turn into art.

thank you

hahah i guess cause in my mind the setting was the zoo. and i hwat can i say, i think monkey butthole is funnier than some tiger's coach purse

which brings me to a next question:

goes a cat's asshole count as porn/illegal? at first i thought no based off its a cat and no one fucks cats. but then i thought about how some people fuck them so they might view my art as porn even though its just funny

and please, i dont mind pics of your own. but do em thumbnail style. especially if they're close ups of something gross and we can see what it is. not the point, dickholes

2/14/2008 10:10:12 PM

just take close-up landscape photos of trash cans

2/14/2008 11:47:33 PM

i've actually done that. there may still be some in my picasa from when i first got the d50. i wanted something more alive and more vulgar

cause when someone looks at an asshole without realizing it is an asshole, and they call it magnificent.... man, you can't beat that. hahaa
