The second 'atom'
Answer revealed, winner (half point): Labdee, click comments for answer. Scroll down this post for original image.Most creative answer: Catcharun: "hordes of people at Tirutanni saying 'Arogara'".
By now, you all must be used to all the manipulative tactics employed. Suffice it to say that this is a composite image. Identify the subject that is the 'atom' of this image, meaning the smallest indivisible unit of the image.

idu unakke konjam over-a terila?
onnum purila? what is a composite image? what is an atom? you see, we are all commerce students.. science period-a cut-adicchitoom.. explain pannu..
anyway my guesses
1) jeans pant
2) Roof of some kerala temple
3) Metal (asbestos) sheets?
Also looks like images of Hands doing a 'Namaste' layered one on top of another
Face of a Tiger/Cat?
Teddy Bear/Cat
>bubs: Just like the previous image, this one is not one frame of a photograph. It is a composite, meaning that some other smaller frame was used and manipulated to create this shot. I'm referring to that smaller frame as an atom, which happens to be greek for indivisible. Thus, the aim is to find the subject that is the atom of this picture. Refer to previous pic and the original image. That's also an atom. Visual explanations are a lot more effective. Your guesses for the day r over & incorrect.
>others: Not a cat/tiger/teddy bear.
A lot of people (athletes?) holding hands! correct-a?
Let me explain A group of people (sportsmen/ athletes) holding their hands high up in 'V' shape!!There's a gymnastic bar kinda thing which they are holding on to.
Kudu ennoda rendu points-a enakku!!!
extreme close up of the 3 stripes on the back of a "ramar" anil. the puny bushy tailed kind found in india , not the cat-sized ones found around here

Army/Airforce stripe.

Looks like a CD/cassette rack to me.
A quilt. Just a thin slice, multiple copies on background of original
:)
Musical/Piano keyboard
Books in a library slanting on one side in a rack!
1) Stacked dvds
PS: drawing from vand...dvds more probable than books coz they gen have more colorful prints on them..thus froming the color gradient in this image?:-s
Peacock feather
3rd guess: Pillars in a building
ok another excellent round of guesses, but no winners. i can say that one of you is close and if no one gets it, i will award 0.5 to that guesser and close this.
>questionable_surprise: too many guesses. only 3 per day. i will not consider ur 4th and 5th guess.
>arun.s: thanks for the feedback
>vand: i see u r timing ur guesses. strategic approach.
4 hours more for the 2 points bonus, after that it'll be back to one point.
> The inside of a building showing wooden rafters / beams?
> Oars or wooden poles in water
railing of a deck overlooking water
1.Alps or equivalent snowy peaks
2.Colourful arrow heads
3.VSP lendhu iduthundu pona angles-lam anga colour panni,photo post panni kozhappa paarkaraya???
(sorry i cant think of very sesnible guesses..:))
Lens-u
The photographs that were posted earlier (last year) had the creativity of maniratnam (audio jack), nativity of bharathiraja (kapali kovil)and simplicity of cheran (guitar).
ipo podaradellam adoor gopalakrishnan 'eli paathayam' style-la irukku.
We need the nativity, creativity and simplicity back please!
BTW,nice idea of increasing the stakes using the time constraint.
fish scales?
Tchah, timezones diff here. Consider it after the bar then. ( Idhu thaan close a? But it was not sposed to be considered ... confoosion.)
(illa DVD than irukkumo ?)
1)Binders?
2)Tapes?
A necklace or a wristband made of shiny metal
Wooden fencing (around a balcony or house)?
Some design on a jute bag
Boxes of cereal or some kinda food.
A ladder or series of steps.
1. Oarsman as seen from the top
2. Clip (as in the one used to secure clothes on a washing line)
hordes of people at tirutanni saying 'arogara'. the only way you managed to align them was by doing some serious cut and paste
let me state the obvious though (and try to appear intelligent ). the atom is a reflected image ie both the object and the reflection are in this photo. then u multiplied the atom across x and did some thingamajiggy in photoshop
its a overhead shot of 3 palliodams (those kerala snake boats) racing neck to neck and so close to each other that the water is not visible. the only question is , am i the winner ?
catcharun,you may have to change your name to cantcatcharun, enna nee engeyo poitta :)
The crafter remains silent... :) Now I'm REALLY curious as to what it may be!
Is it the serrations on the side of the highways here to warn the driver if he/she crosses the right side border/yellow line.
Is it a grilled something (made of wood or some metal) like a bridge or a pathway. The picture has been taken from below or one side of the wooden grill (or whatever)? I can see the grill (like a flat ladder), the light brown streaks in the pic are the stems of the grill and the grey/black/white streaks are the view of whatever there is on the other side of the grill/bridge). I think I can see something like water above it.
Cricket bat/ match stick
needless to say, catcharun wins hands down on the creative guesses.
>bubs: shall strive to meet your nativity and creativity request. however, simplicity is open to question, as i mentioned before it's a fine balance between giving people a fair chance to solve it versus having easier puzzles and having the one that visits the blog first solve it.
sorry for the wait time, folks. had a crazy day today. here's the much awaited answer and the winner.
the answer i was looking for is "pier".
excellent round of guessing, people. two of you have gotten very close, but i have decided to give half a point to labdee. but labdee's answer "wooden poles in water" is closest. by the way labdee, that was your 3rd guess, after oars. the 4th one was "railing on deck overlooking water" does not count, which is not a big deal anyway, since it is not as close as the 3rd guess. wooden poles in water is not really specific, it's a general guess, but close, hence the 0.5.
vand's guess was a closer guess: "bridge or pathway", and good analysis vand, but you have overshot your guesses for the day, making them invalid.
Cha.. cant it be 1 point since it was within 24 hours...?
Thank you anyway!
I considered that, but the answer, as I said, was not very specific, but close enough to merit closing this puzzle.
:( That was like hitting a sixer and stepping over the stumps too, making the six invalid.
darn..creativity aint getting me no points, man
post something easy for these tired eyes will ya ?
