This week's Macro Mondays (9th March) is the theme "Cutter". The series of shots here are my thoughts and working shots ... not necessarily my final choice.

Vibrant series No. 1

 

This little cookie cutter is just under 1.5" / 4 cm in diameter. I happened to have some matching paper, so why not create a vibrant scene? Inspired by Macro Mondays' "Vibrant Minimalism" challenge.

Friends of mine challenged each other to come up with new uses for a standard gingerbread man cutter that we all have! We bring him out once a year at Christmas time and then he sits lonely and neglected the rest of the year in our cookie cutter bins.

 

When the gingerbread man was suggested, I have to admit, I rolled my eyes, because I have already made 35 different people with my gingerbread man - what else was I going to make? I started by turning the cutter upside down and looking at it for a while and thought of the hyacinth bulb...... and then turned it sideways and thought of a bird. The cactus idea happened when I was decorating the others and luckily I had a little leftover dough in the fridge and made another cookie!

 

Hopefully this inspires you to look at some of your cutters in a new light! I've posted individual photos of these cookies if you want a closer look!

Dit is Jan de Koning, 78 jaar oud (!), tijdens het werk met zijn oude riethaak. Hij doet dit werk al sinds 1947. Hij is nu nog de enige rietsnijder in de Biesbosch en omstreken.

 

This is Mr. Jan de Koning, aged 78 (!), during his work with his old 'riethaak' (special reed cutting tool). He works as a reed cutter since 1947. Now he is the last and only reed cutter in the Dutch National Park De Biesbosch and surroundings.

I meant to say the roofing section of your local hardware store. The roll I bought was about $8. I would like to reiterate please DO NOT use galvanized metal. It is treated with zinc. Although zinc is found in many items we use daily, metal coated in it is not safe for food preparation or storage.

I think this is a 'Patchwork Leaf Cutter Bee' (Megachile centuncularis), finessing her construction material prior to flying it back to her nest site. This little insect kept me entertained whilst I had a coffee in the back garden. She made multiple flights to and from a small gap in the timbers of our pergola, with a good sized chunk of leaf in her mandibles on each inbound flight.

These were the easiest petroglyphs I've ever photographed! They were etched deep into this dark layer of desert varnish and provided wonderful natural contrast. Thus, they are often called the Cookie Cutter Glyphs. This is just a small subset of a large panel.

Hello all! Here's my first GARC ever! And it was a lot of fun, I'll definitely be building more. The colour scheme and the concept itself was inspired by Josh Derksen especially this amazing ship.

Sir Nigel Gresley at Railfest, National Railway Museum, York, North Yorkshire, England

 

A little bit of an unconventional image this morning. I'm still not sure if I like it as to what I had in my mind at the time hasn't really come out in post processing. It took a lot of processing to get this to how it is but maybe its one of those photos that will grow on you, we all have them don't we?

 

I do have a colour version and maybe this would be better to use than B&W? I want you to be as honest as possible with your views and comments on this image.

 

This was taken at the National Railway Museum in York where they were holding a celebration of the railways called Railfest. It had trains and locomotives from all around the UK where you could go in the cabs of them. It was really nice to get up into the cab of the Sir Nigel Gresley and have a chat with the driver, I was lucky enough to get this photo when everyone else had left the footplate. Sadly the weather wasn't on our side and I was ducking out of the rain every 5 mins, oh well you can't win them all can you?

Information

Withdrawn from service by British Railways on 1 February 1966, it was targeted by the A4 Preservation Society, which was soon renamed the A4 Locomotive Society, to rescue the locomotive from the cutter’s torch. This was achieved, and the ‘Streak’ was moved to Crewe for refurbishment. Fellow A4 No 60026 Miles Beevor also subsequently visited the former LMS works after its own withdrawal, and its three pairs of 6 ft 8 in driving wheels were transferred to No 60007 because they were in a far better condition than those on the newly saved engine.

 

For a long period of her preservation, Sir Nigel Gresley was kept at Steamtown Carnforth, at the old locomotive depot. This was a prime location for her mainline operations, being the only mainline A4 after 1973 other than Union of South Africa. On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Mallard's record run, on 3 July 1988, the National Railway Museum assembled 3 of the 4 UK-based A4 Pacific locomotives at the museum, the first time this had ever been done in preservation. Early in July 2008, SNG joined her three sisters extant in the UK for a display at the National Railway Museum in York.

By 1994, Sir Nigel Gresley stayed at the Great Central Railway, before spending some time at the East Lancashire Railway. The locomotive is now preserved at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, and is in daily operation, following a 10 year overhaul to working order. It is owned by Sir Nigel Gresley Locomotive Preservation Trust Ltd. and operated by the A4 Locomotive Society Ltd. on behalf of the Trust.

 

In 2010, Sir Nigel Gresley was under repair at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway after its winter overhaul in 2009/10 revealed that extensive work and repair was needed on the tubing. However, in November 2010, repairs had been completed, and the locomotive is now running in regular service again. The first rail tour after this repair was The Great Britain IV, 16th April 2011.

 

However, in May 2011, during the routine annual boiler exam, small cracks were detected in the firebox. Initially it was thought that a repair could be performed using copper welding, but further inspection showed a more extensive repair would be needed and 60007 will not be operational until late October at the earliest.

 

The National Railway Museum (NRM) is a museum in York forming part of the British National Museum of Science and Industry and telling the story of rail transport in Britain and its impact on society. It has won many awards, including the European Museum of the Year Award in 2001. It is the home of the national collection of historically significant railway vehicles, as well as a collection of other artefacts and both written and pictorial records.

 

The NRM in York displays a collection of over 100 locomotives and nearly 200 other items of rolling stock, virtually all of which either ran on the railways of Great Britain or were built there. Also on the 20 acres (8.1 ha) site are many hundreds of thousands of other items and records of social, technical, artistic and historical interest, exhibited mostly in three large halls of a former motive power depot next to the East Coast Main Line, near York railway station. It is the largest museum of its type in Britain, the largest in the world being La Cité du Train in the French town of Mulhouse. It also has more visitors than any other British museum outside London.

 

The NRM was established on its present site, the former York North locomotive depot, in 1975, when it took over the former British Railways collection located in Clapham and the York Railway Museum located elsewhere in the city; since then, the collection has continued to grow.

 

The museum is a short walk from the railway station in York, either on the road or via a staircase from the rear of the platforms. A "roadtrain" runs from the city centre (near York Minster) to the museum on Leeman Road. York Park and Ride also serve the museum from the car park entrance, on Line 2 (Rawcliffe Bar-York). Admission to the museum has been free since 2001. It is open daily from 10 am to 6 pm.

These were made from a present cookie cutter. The possibilities are endless. I made these for the recent camp cookie platter. What else can you make with your cutter - don't make it wait until Christmas to use it again!
