it's one of those things...not sure what it's called...a bunch of pins that makes the shape of whatever is underneath it

one of those things that takes the shape of what you put it on, made of many "needles"??

one of those things that molds to your hand or face etc?

This looks like one of those peg boards that you can put something behind and the pegs move out to show the shape of the object. I have no idea what they're called.

One of those pin things that you can put things underneath and it shows the shape on top. Everyone had one in the 90's. No idea what they are called!
Nice macro

Is this a hairbrush?
11/21/2008 06:59:44 PM
A stumper, so meets the challenge. But beyond that I'm not resonating with the subject.
11/21/2008 04:08:07 PM
Pins in a pin cushion.
11/21/2008 03:54:05 PM
A whole lot of pins in a purple pincushion?
11/21/2008 03:59:40 AM
some nails?
11/20/2008 12:18:38 PM
Ummm ... dunno'. That's probably a good thing in this challenge. Nice color (OK, I have a purple bias) and fun shapes and reflections.

those toys that you would put your hand in... and then the nails would take the shape of it.. very nicely done... creative...

Pin Heads? Great focus and DOF. The magenta background helps them to stand out!

My guess is that thing that you push your hand through and make an imprint in the metal bits.. what's it called?

One of those toy things that you press up against something and it takes the shape of it? Nice letting and composition.

Hmm, where did you find these macro UFOs?
11/19/2008 07:45:00 PM
looks like pins or nails

This photo is just plain awesome. The purple background makes this photo! The DOF is great.

Nail heads?
11/19/2008 04:07:09 PM
Pins

hmmmmmm,,maybe one of those things you press your hand into and it keeps it shape? or a hair brush? Nice close up no matter what it is....

Sure, I'll guess it's one of those toys that has a zillion pins for you to press on one side with your hand or face (or something) and it creates the image with raised pins on the other side. Just my wild guess. :D

Good rythm in this picture. Nice focus, colours and lighting.

One of those pin-toy things...

It looks like one of those square/rectangular things that has a lot of tiny nails it that you can put your hand under and see the shape of your hand. I hope that makes sense. My son has one and these look like the same nails.

Pin heads
11/19/2008 09:42:03 AM
One of those toys that has the nails in it and you put your hand or an object under it and it takes on that shape?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Well, as you ask for it: Nails
11/19/2008 08:19:53 AM
This is excellent and has really got me thinking.....
11/19/2008 08:18:12 AM
Nails, probably one of those "pin art" toys. Nice.

Nails?
11/18/2008 10:54:23 PM
Lots of pins or nails.
11/18/2008 08:30:51 PM
No vote, just guessing...

Looks like one of those things where you can press an object on one side and it appears on the opposite side with these metal ends.

It's one of those toys with lots of pins and when you push them they take on the shape of the object? My kids have one and they love it -
Well shot, lit, good dof, I like the purple background

Rivets?
11/18/2008 07:23:07 PM
Is this one of those gifty things where the metal nail-like pieces follow the shape of whatever you put it on?
