From one of my outings in January to Colonel Sam Smith when the ducks are contained in tighter quarters due to the ice formations in Lake Ontario.

A sea anemone, growing inside a sea shell, a natural container. (1 of 2)

Macro Mondays, theme: Contained

The sea anemone is about half an inch across - it was not possible to hold up a ruler for a more accurate measurement since this was taken in an area of active surf - but the grains of sand give an indication of the small size.

HMM to all participants!

Seliger (Ostashkovskoe) is a system of lakes on the Valdai Upland, on the border of the Tver and Novgorod regions. Russia.

Lake Seliger in the Russian chronicles of the 12th – 13th centuries. occurs under the name Sereger. The name of the lake is most likely of Baltic-Finnish origin, but its exact etymology remains a matter of controversy. According to one version, the name comes from the Finnish “Selkäjärvi” (“high lake”), according to another - from the Finnish “Särkijärvi” (“roach lake”). There is also an assumption that the name of the lake, translated from the Finnish selhea, is interpreted as “a transparent, indented lake”.

The water's edge is located at an altitude of 205 m above sea level. Lake Seliger is an alternation of stretches and channels. The total area of ​​the water surface, according to the State Water Register, is 212 km2, the area of ​​the lake with islands is 250 km2. The average depth of the lake is 5.8 m, the maximum is 24 m. The volume of the contained water is 1.23 km3.

The glacial origin of the lake explains its peculiar shape - it is not a single body of water, but a chain of lakes stretching from north to south for 100 km and interconnected by short narrow channels. The Seliger lake system includes 24 stretches and lakes, interconnected by short straits-intercurrents and long straits-rivers.

The coastline of the lake is more than 500 km long and is significantly indented. The shores are low, sandy in places, there are many natural beaches. There are also many steep banks, overgrown with pine and spruce.

Ice sets on the entire lake by the end of November - early December and lasts until the end of April. In summer, the lake water heats up quickly, already in June the temperature of the upper layer reaches 20 ° C, and in July and the first half of August it warms up to 25 ° C.

The water is fresh, slightly mineralized. Transparency up to 5 m.

The Next Global Depression Is coming and Optimism Won’t Slow It Down.

The world is confused and frightened. COVID-19 infections are on the rise across the U.S. and around the world, even in countries that once thought they had contained the virus.

Let’s start with the word depression. There is no commonly accepted definition of the term. That’s not surprising, given how rarely we experience catastrophes of this magnitude. But there are three factors that separate a true economic depression from a mere recession. First, the impact is global. Second, it cuts deeper into livelihoods than any recession we’ve faced in our lifetimes. Third, its bad effects will linger longer.

A depression is not a period of uninterrupted economic contraction. There can be periods of temporary progress within it that create the appearance of recovery. The Great Depression of the 1930s began with the stock-market crash of October 1929 and continued into the early 1940s, when World War II created the basis for new growth. That period included two separate economic drops: first from 1929 to 1933, and then again from May 1937 into 1938. As in the 1930s, we’re likely to see moments of expansion in this period of depression.

Depressions don’t just generate ugly stats and send buyers and sellers into hibernation. They change the way we live. The Great Recession created very little lasting change. Some elected leaders around the world now speak more often about wealth inequality, but few have done much to address it. Large segments of society, particularly people who weren’t already on the verge of retirement, were able to hunker down and later return to the same approach to saving and investing they practiced before the crisis. They were rewarded with a period of solid, long-lasting recovery. That’s very different from the current crisis. COVID-19 fears will bring lasting changes to public attitudes toward all activities that involve crowds of people and how we work on a daily basis

Even with all this Knowledge we have to carry on and keep thinking positive. We have to stay strong and stick together. This depression wasn`t the first and won`t be the last.

Eine Pusteblume in Acryl eingegossen steht auf dem Schreibtisch. Gedacht als Briefbeschwerer, er wird mit einer LED Lampe von oben angleuchtet und ist somit zu einem Kunstopjekt geworden. Je nachdem wie es angeleuchtet wird oder seinen Standort wechselt stellt es sich neu dar.

Ich wünsche allen Freunden ein friedliches 2020 das uns mit der Schönheit unser Erde und Frieden erfreuen sollte.

A dandelion cast in acrylic stands on the desk. intended as a paperweight. It is illuminated from above with an LED lamp and has thus become an art project. Depending on how it is illuminated or how it changes its location it presents itself in a new way.

I wish all friends a peaceful 2020, which should delight us with the beauty of our earth and peace.

Un pissenlit moulé en acrylique se pose sur le bureau. Il est destiné à servir de presse-papiers. Il est éclairé par le haut avec une lampe LED et est ainsi devenu un projet artistique. Selon la façon dont il est éclairé ou dont il change d'emplacement, il se présente d'une manière nouvelle.

Je souhaite à tous les amis une année 2020 paisible, qui devrait nous réjouir de la beauté de notre terre et de la paix.

This week the theme was "Contained", so I filled a couple of shells with beads, and let a few escape :)

I can appreciate a good cup of coffee. Especially when it is 'decorated'. Mostly it is a heart, but on this occasion not ;-))

Have a nice start of this week, with or without coffee.

For the Macro Mondays theme "Contained"

We will not be contained.

Our fury cannot be controlled

or legislated.

Do not try to give words to or limit

entities you cannot ever begin to even fathom.

It's a late one this week, but once I realised this coat button might double up as a mini bowl I couldn't resist and managed a quick session after work today!

The button measures just 2cm. across.

Tiny box is only 2 1/4 in in length.

If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water.

The Kenwood Park Water Tower is an octagonal brick and stone water tower in the Kenwood neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 1910 and designed by Frederick William Cappelen, the city of Minneapolis engineer at the time. The tower is 110 feet tall, making it the tallest structure in Kenwood. The tower has not been used to store water since 1954. The tower was built to alleviate water pressure and storage problems in the Lowry Hill area. Although the tower is not the work of a master architect or representative of a specific architectural style, its design is distinctive. It is ornamented with projecting ribs, narrow rectangular windows, and Lombard bands, suggesting a medieval fortress. The tower serves as a distinct visual focus within the neighborhood.

Three tiny Chocolate Teddybears

Travelling in a Box

Were chased around by a little Fox

Which was not successful

But for the Bears quite stressful

However, they could escape

And even kept their Shape

In the Box they’ve been living happily

But for the Fox it was of course ….

...........…. A Tragedy.......................

British poet William Blake once wrote that a world was contained in a grain of sand. Physicists have done one better, finding a surprising link between streams of flowing sand grains and the birth of the universe. Life, when time takes over, will be only dust .

Thanks for your visit and fav's/comments!

I saw a sign on the roadside

It was on my travels home

The sign read Fairy Lake

So I pondered if the lake

Was in a fairy shape

So in my daydream.....

Read the rest and grab the designer and event info on Threads & Tuneage

"Thank you very much for all your faves and Happy Twenty Twenty to all of you" :)

I'm keeping a lot of dandelion seeds in a small bottle.

Those are my favorite items for shooting.

As soon as I open the red lid of the bottle, they overflow!!
