The fork is certainly not the first utensil that comes to mind when you want to taste honey, but finally, why not? Maybe a contradiction or an unconscious way to eat less? Who knows ?! For me, this acacia's honey was delicious ... Hmm (m)! ;-)

La fourchette n'est certes pas le premier ustensile qui vient à l'idée quand on veut déguster du miel, mais finalement, pourquoi pas ? Peut-être une contradiction ou un moyen inconscient d'en manger moins ? Allez savoir ?! Pour ma part ce miel d'acacia était délicieux... Hmm(m) ! ;-)
It was out with the cutlery today to try and capture that most magical of eating tools - the fork!!
Large on black! :)

I have this unusual set of miniature forks, inherited from my mother. They are so small that even an olive is difficult to carry with one of these. I wonder why she bought them, never saw them used in my childhood.
Of the total set I arranged 10, and using the Focus Bracketing option on my camera made 100 shots, stacked in Helicon Focus. Some minor corrections in Lightroom in post.
Happy MM everybody
"West Fork Subway:" Not as busy as a New York subway of course, as this one has flooded passages deterring most hikers from crossing through, and despite my wearing waterproof thick socks, my toes were freezing pretty badly wading through this area. I tend to get frostbitten fingers and toes ridiculously quickly, as too many past experiences have taught me. I would have rather waited maybe another 45 minutes for better light, but thought it wouldn't be worth my losing some toes, as it was an unseasonably cold and windy day when I took this image, despite how warm and sunny it looks here, and I had already been in the water for over an hour; not to mention, I still needed to hike a few miles back to the car! Hopefully you still enjoy. With all the constant wind channeling through here, it took a while to capture fairly unperturbed reflections.

Taken for the Macro Mondays group, on the subject of 'Tools and Utensils', this is a pair of dinner forks, given a low-key, mono treatment, to try to emphasise the shape and textures.

Small falls along in the Left Fork of North Creek, Zion National Park, Utah. This small falls sheltered underneath a sandstone face is encountered soon before reaching the iconic Subway. I was lucky and received permits via the last minute lottery drawing, so I was able to hike up into the Subway area from the bottom-up (the top down route requires at least a hand line, though a harness and climbing equipment is recommended). The trail quickly descends about 500' into the Left Fork of North Creek, where the trail meanders in and out of the river and up and over many boulders for about 3 miles before reaching these falls (and the Subway). It has been pretty dry in the park recently, so unfortunately the many falls in the area were only a trickle. Thankfully there were still some amazing spots!
One of my favorite stream crossings out of many on the West Fork Way in Panthertown Valley hiking to Dismal Falls. It has a mysterious feel to it. It is dark like this even in broad daylight. At day's end it must have an erie feel. This section of Panthertown is reputed to be haunted. I've hiked to Dismal Fall three times. The first time I got lost three times in the forest (poor directions and one section of the trail intentionally flagged wrong), the second time I hiked it, I heard voices on the trail ahead of me but never saw the hikers (which is impossible in here). Regardless, I love this hike and would hike it once a month if I lived closer. Next year one of my goals is to hike the 9-mile loop hike to "High Bethel" on the Cold Mountain Trailhead.
