It happens sometimes, that I don't see in the drawings of the sequence of the folding steps, what a designer means. It took me a while before I saw that this Hippopotamus had his mouth width open ;-)

This origami Daffodil has almost the same folding sequence as the 'Daffodil Tower' (see first comment box). I don't know which of these two designs was the first one.

 

Paper:

- For each daffodil I used 6 pieces of 7,5x15cm, double colored yellow kami paper

Final size: diameter 11cm, height 4,5cm

- For the leaves several strokes green copy paper, width 3,75cm, length varies from 20- 30cm.

A small male Blue Damselfly (Austrolestes colensonis) endemic to New Zealand. With a length of 4-5cm (1.75 inches) this is the only endemic Dragonfly/Damselfly of a blue colour in New Zealand.

"It’s spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you’ve got it, you want—oh, you don’t quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!"

Quote - Mark Twain

 

~~Spring is in the air, also in Origami-land ;-)) These little tulips are very excited too….do you hear them talking about….….?~~

 

It is a very easy model to fold, with just two square pieces of paper, make two creases and you've got yourself a lovely abstract tulip. Very useful for little decorations.

Have a lovely weekend ahead ;-))

 

Paper:

For the big 'Tulip' I used for the flower red kami paper (3,75x3,75) and for the leaf green kami paper, same size.

The little one is folded with 1,4x1,4 piece of paper, both for the flower and leaf.

Final size big 'Tulip' about 7,5cm and the little one 4,5cm

Macro Mondays Theme Book

 

My son is a voracious reader. He studied English Literature at Uni and his room is stuffed full of books. This particular specimen is a Penguin Classic by Jane Austen - Sense and Sensibility and seems to be destined for the charity shop - I don't think he likes Jane Aistin 😱

 

Definitely fits within the groups size regulations. I forgot to measure at the time. Have since tried to reproduce and I think frame is around 4-5cm in width.

 

Happy Macro Monday! 😊📚

I think 'Cabriolet' is the name for this model, but I don't read Japanese...... , but it is a nice origami car too and folding it, was fun ;-))

I colored the tires black.

Folded using a square grid-division 40x21.

'''It is indescribably hot in this room, but luckily this Santa Claus and the Sack are heat resistant.

We are here in the gold room for only a very short time (with special permission), long enough to get an impression of all the beautiful things that are made here.

Due to confidentiality, the process cannot be photographed. Also not the final gifts, because then it is no longer a surprise.

Santa Claus has almost finished wrapping the presents and then he will embark on the long journey to get to the human world in time."""

 

Wishing you all a very happy weekend ahead ;-))

""" Surely you've all heard the sensational news, that Santa Claus is on his way and here he is spotted once more.

This Santa prefers to travel over the water at night. His silver reindeer look small, but they can produce such a super speed,

that the human eye cannot perceive them, as they pass by. Fortunately, a collage of Santa Claus was able to take a photo."""

I folded this cute little heart box, from two pieces of kami paper 15x15cm, final size: 3,5cm width and height 4,5cm.

 

Model: Origami 3D Heart Box

Design: I'm not sure, but "DIYwithME" made a tutorial about it, so is he the designer??? If you know, please let me know.

   

.. with NINE towers for Macro Monday's .. 4.5cm x 6cm

Sometimes the same origami model is created by different people, who had more or the less the same idea, like happened here with this origami 3D-Snowflake.

 

It is a simple model so I could use 'vellum'-paper, which gives also great results when backlighted. I made a day and night version;-))

 

In the upper row you see first an open snowflake. When the centre is being pushed in to create the star, you get the other two, shown from one side and the other and also little variations at the "tentacles".

 

In the bottom the snowflakes are folded in another sequences, but the result tis the same. I folded a small and a big one.

 

Folded from hexagon, 10cm, final size about 4-5cm. Except for the big one then the hexagon is 15cm, final size about 8cm.

A small(3,5 x 4 x 4.5cm) ceramic Greek Orthodox Church

 

All Antique temples and old Orthodox Churches are on the top of the rocks. Even though sun is high and hot there and there are milion of stairs you have to climb in order to feel that beauty, at the end it is worth it.

Inspired by that, I took this photo on a concrete column outside my house and there is a river in the back instead of the sea that kisses the sky.

 

Thank you very much for your visits, comments and faves!

Happy Macro Monday to all flickr friends, HMM

Our trip to India was amazing and this was one of the little keepsakes we picked up at the Taj Mahal, a 40 Year Calendar. Moving the year to the current month (top right) , the days of the week are correctly displayed in the bottom window, it even caters for leap years! The whole disk only measures 4.5cm across so covering 40 years it really does give a very big picture of what's to come, and saves throwing away calendars every year!

Macro Mondays theme The Odd One

 

A bunch of eco-friendly paper straws (measuring approx 4.5cm across).

 

I've had to step back a bit from photography the last few weeks as life has hit some rocky patches (not withstanding our crazy British politics!). I hope to be slowly getting back into it again.

 

Have a great week and HMM!

Macro Mondays theme Unusual Patterns

 

With a theme like this, the most difficult bit was to choose something and stick with it! This is 4-5cm length of some kind of meadow grass I picked up on my walks yesterday. I tried but failed to identify it on the internet. Their compact bristly texture is irresitable.

 

Happy Macro Mondays!

A sunny grouping of Clustered Bonnets ( Mycena inclinata) on a lovely autumn afternoon.

Cap; reddish-brown bell-shaped cap up to 4.5cm (1.8in) in diameter.

Stem; 9 cm (3.5 in) tall, whitish to yellow-brown at the top but progressively becoming reddish-brown towards the base in the maturity, where they are covered by a yellowish mycelium that can be up to a third of the length of the stem. The Mycena inclinata is widespread, being found in Europe, North Africa, Asia, Austraila, and North America where it grows in small groups or tufts on fallen logs and stumps, especially of oak.

 

I used tiny magnetic beads to construct a ring a round of 16 beads (2.5cm in diameter) and 7 layers (2.5cm in height/depth). Then placed 2 golden foil cards about 4.5cm by 7cm (from chocolate packing) in L shaped and placed the ring.

Then placed a pink plastic phone holder and a blue box to create color reflections.

 

Shot taken at a tilted angle into the middle of the ring, creating multiple refractions and reflections.

Something very strange is happening with Flickr, it keeps freezing with a whited out box across the headers at the top of the page. Is anyone else experiencing this?

 

Series: MACRO MONDAYS

 

"50 shades of gray of a white paper sheet"

 

There are 9 layers of on white paper hand draw and cut-out "forest" and the Deer.

 

This is not my original Idea, I found this art concept on the internet some time ago, I just scaled it down.. very down...

The scene is only 4.5cm X 3cm tall.

 

There is no photoshop color correction or paper painting, all shades of white/gray/black are on camera capture. The shades are achieved because of the distance between each layer to the only one light source on the background (the flashlight), the room was totally dark and the shutter speed was set to 25 seconds.

 

The Deer is darker, almost black, because it is ticker (5 sheets of WHITE PAPER) than the other layers.

 

To get the light rays and lens flares, actually I've removed the 2nd (counting from the flashlight) paper layer.

Cheesy title, yes I know! I lifted it directly from the sellers page 😄

 

Carnberry Fruit Extract with Vitamins C & E

 

Cranberry tablets are packed with antioxidants and can help reduce the frequency of urinary tract infections in some people (BTW these are not mine!). They may also promote heart health, improve blood sugar control, boost immunity and protect against cancer, cavities and stomach ulcers.

 

Bottle neck measures 3.5cm, widening to 4.5cm.

 

Stay Healthy!

 

Happy Macro Monday! 😄

Macro Mondays theme Cogwheel

 

I must admit my heart sank when the theme was announced. We have nothing cogwheely in the house, not that I could bring myself to photograph. Then I remembered the Spiral Art set from the Early Learnig Centre that the kids had when they were little (at least 20+ years ago now).

 

These are three of the cogwheels from the set. The frame measures 4-5cm in width.

 

Happy Macro Mondays! 😊

In a height of 482m, the Lotte World Tower has a platform with a 4.5cm thick glass floor. That explains the strange walk of the young woman. With a total height of 555m, it is currently the sixth-highest skyscraper of the world.
