Telephone box at Hartlebury Castle. Growing up, I'd pass two such red telephone boxes. They were common. They smelt the same. They were useful. Now? You have to explain what they are to your children who don't understand what the world was like before mobile phones. This is a tribute to a shot taken by Andrew Beeken.
Or should that be hitman?
The notorious Box Tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis, Buxusmot), the very numerous caterpillars are considered a pest.

"Another Box Turtle in the road. I'll stop to move him." That was my thought until I saw it up close. I dont normally break out the lighting gear for these but this one was a stunner.
Apparently this bag type is called a 'box pouch'. I've been looking at various tutorials, youtube videos and pictures to see what the basic idea is and how I can make my own little changes. I particularly love the strap on one side, tab on the other idea. On this bag I made the tab wider, just because. I decided that a narrow tab is the way to go.
This bag is a gift for someone who loves green and chartreuse. Both fabrics are from the Geogram fabric line by Samarra Khaja. I was careful to line up the print and quilting along the zipper edge.
Aren't these fabrics fabulous? I love the different shades of green- even the grey is on the green side when you look at it carefully. So I picked a green background to go with it, of course.
I finished this bag just in time for 'Different Shades of Green' in the "Looking Close...on Friday!" group. Woot!
Macro Mondays theme: Desk
I made this wee origami box about a year ago for the odd paper clip and it has been a handy receptacle for lots of tiny things on my desk. It is about 1.5" wide. I don't know if it has a designer -- I just started randomly folding a scrap of paper and this is what I ended up with.
HMM
I tried to capture my dear sunflower

I disturbed this pretty moth when I opened the conservatory door early this morning; it had obviously spent the night inside. Luckily it landed again on the window frame and I was able to get a couple of shots in the half-light using flash.
I had to id the moth - it's not a species I've seen before. Apparently it is an Asian species and only arrived in the UK in 2007, the first sighting being in Kent. It's now found in many parts of Southern England. The caterpillars feed on and are a pest of box (Buxus), and they almost certainly arrived in the UK on imported Buxus plants.
Update in 2023, Box Moth Caterpillars are ravaging the local box hedging.
You can call this quirky.
The music is from John Cage's amazing and quirky piece written specifically for Toy Piano. "Suite For Toy Piano (1948)"
Performed by Stephen Drury on the album devoted to Cage's music, "In A Landscape".
Exploration of the present day human condition and behavior as reflected in the lifeless world of mannequins and store windows. As beautiful as it seems from a visual perspective, there is an ever-present reminder of the lack of emotions, and an almost surrealistic belief of happiness and pleasure derived from the material world. Trapped in a well-conceived, visually stimulating box, these mannequins exude spiritual bliss, presenting a paradoxical interpretation of reality.
My attempt at a "secret" box -- opening the concealed latches allows the back of the house to slide out. Then again, I'm not sure what you'd store in here. A very small stamp collection perhaps?
