Ah - the artist formerly known as prince eyewave :- )

While I recognised these as Nespresso pods, I still really like the composition and colours in this - very nice.

Another one for your stock site ;- )

Heh - Nespresso thingies was the first thing that popped into my mind. I don't think they're as common in the US just yet but I am hoping to get either a Nespresso or a Tassimo or I'll die if I have to drink American drip coffee all the time...

I didn't have the faintest clue, nor a funny answer to leave. One of my faves from this challenge, however.

Looks like caps of markers maybe. But I love the shiny metal appearance and your choice of basic colors.

Markers?

Ordered neatly and colors like christmas decoration. Is it single coffee portions?

Those containers for making individual cups of coffee or tea that are all the rage now, with the different colors indicating different flavors?
 12/25/2009 03:32:39 PM
The color and texture I like, but its a little too dark and dull... I have no idea what it is! 7

This is very interesting and very hard to guess!

Very nice and I'm also stumped - 8

ETA: I was in the hardware store today to look for a dehumidifier. In the corner of my eye as I was walking up the isle I saw some Nespresso machines and capsules and immediately thought of your image. I looked closer at them, bought a Nespresso machine and ventured home. Now I know more about it. So my guess is: Nespresso capsules - Decaffeinato in the bottom center with an Arpeggio directly above and the wonderful Volluto on the left.

Nice colours, good job. Something plastic or metal, a child's toy?

Perhaps ends of markers or some type of makeup thing. Not just a puzzle but an excellent image. Well done.
