Pretty sure I've seen it before on other forums, basically the idea is you take a photo of something, and then crop it(so you can show the original image after people guess it) so you can only see a small part of something, but enough to hopefully realise what it is.

Whoever guesses the image right posts the next one, no idea how this is gonna pan out but figured it was worth a shot

here's an example, hope it's not too hard,

Hint: I'm using it right now.

I admit I snatched that from you.

This can either be really hard, or very easy.

But be specific please.

Another tip, the screw head is 14mm in diameter.
So it's by no means small, it's part of the design.

Well, you deserved it after my snitch last time.

Do note that I'll briefly go into anorak mode: That's clearly a replica unlike mine, and mine is actually the EA 117 (Not that you would be able to tell from a macro shot)
