The Kraków Cloth Hall (Sukiennice in Polish) dates to the Renaissance and is one of the city's most recognizable icons. It is the central feature of the main market square in the Old Town. As you can see a storm is brewing over the city on the day I was there.

View in the Belgian town of Ypres. Actually the town is in the Flemish speaking part of Belgium and there the name is Ieper - but the French name of the town were made quite (in)famous during the First World War, and still more commonly used by English speakers.
The view here is of the Cloth hall (Lakenhalle van Ieper or Les Halles aux draps d'Ypres) originally built in the 13th century. The building was more or less completely destroyed in the First World War and the one now standing is a (very well done) copy of the original (built in the 1930s-60s).

This is an old footstool, which we had some years ago covered with new fabric.
Das ist ein alter Fußschemel, den wir vor einigen Jahren mit neuem Stoff bezogen ließen.
the macromondays group theme for today, 1/28, is cloth.
and there's no dithering today!!
this one is, hands down, my favorite :)
Here is the third capture taken for the Monday Macro Theme. This one is slightly farther back allowing for more of the fabric foot being in the frame ... but there (2) was at f/32 this one is at f/8 creating that pretty bokeh effect ... this may be my favorite (though there is a version (4) at f/13 that looks neat too, but that one will not get posted).
This coming Monday's Macro theme is cloth ... so I started thinking about some interesting ways to capture some cloths. I settled on getting the macro of the cloth in some sewing action.
This of course meant I would have to engage Mrs. Krach. First off this required me to enter her sewing room which meant I needed to get a 'Permit" to enter the space.
Do not want to mention the Red Tape needed to actually touch the new sewing machine ...
I then searched through some of the fabrics laying about, and this one with the blue cloth and sequins I imagined would make for some nice reflections and bokeh.
Given all the preparatory permits and permissions needed to set this up, I took a bunch of close in compositions at various apertures to play with depth of field. So will posting some variations to see which folks like the most before submitting the final one to the Macro Monday group coming up.

This is a roll of upholstery fabric which has stood in a corner being ignored for the last year. It is meant to be used to cover one of a pair of armchairs which we bought from an antique shop. We decided to upholster both chairs ourselves which was quite the learning curve! We managed to complete one chair but the exertions of doing that meant we were in no rush to do the other one. It's on a list of things to do but unfortunately keeps getting pushed to the bottom of the list.

The other day I was walking my Donna in a park and there, sitting on a bench, was an elderly lady looking sad. When I was passing by, Donna jumped on the bench and sat by her side. The lady smiled and petted her on the head. She was holding in her hand a bunch of little branches with tiny, delicate white flowers. She pulled out one branch and kindly gave it to me. Since then it has started to wilt and I've kept it perched on my kitchen table. The little pot is my Granny's as is the table cloth. They seem to go fit together. The texture is mine.
Thanky you for viewing. I hope your Monday is a good one!
