Good morning!! My second week taking part in macro Monday. I'll admit, I almost backed out. Not sure why I'm so insecure about these type of images but there is that little voice of doubt that never seems to go away. Anyways...I'm always telling people to just post what they love even if it isn't everyones cup of tea. So here I am...posting some peely paint, little rust, and weathered old wood!! :-)
Hope you're all having a lovely start to the week! HMM!!

Backdrop K&S View from my balcony
The view from part way down the 199 steps.
The white house with the light on at the very left of the shot is called Steps cottage. It was where we were staying during our week in Whitby over Easter. There wasn't so many steps to climb to take this iconic view at sunrise, which was great for me!!
To get to the cottage from the centre you do have to climb quite a few steps which was a little tiring after a full day out. By the end of the week the walk up seemed slightly less tiring! 😂
I should probably attempt to get fitter before we return for 2 weeks in the summer holidays, then I'll have a go at tackling the 199 steps to do a sunrise shoot from the Abbey!

Some history about the 199 steps.

No pain, no victory
Your reign is history
'Cause we're not stoppin' 'til we break through
So take your best shot, make your move
Oh, step right up, who's next?
You're messin' with the best
We're death defyin'
Coming in like lightnin'
Look out, we're strikin'
Ready set, ready set, let's go . . .

Created for Digitalmania ~ OOB.
Due to constant electrical outages in South Africa, my main computer has just reached its third motherboard for the year, which means that it is currently having a life saving operation. It also means that I am stuck with my very underpowered laptop - one that collapses in a heap every time I try to do anything other than very basic stuff in Photoshop. Consequently, I have reworked an old OOB from a couple of years ago, rather than do a totally new OOB - anyway, it is quite a bit different to the original version, so it is a new OOB in every respect. I was also able to fix up a few things that I didn't like in the original. Enjoy!

When you work so hard all the day long
And everything you do seems to go wrong
Just drop by my place on your way home
Let's go get stoned
I get around (get around round round I get around)
From town to town (get around round round I get around)
I'm a real cool head (get around round round I get around)
I'm makin' real good bread (get around round round I get around)
Closeup of a young flower of Geranium x oxonianum ‘Wargrave Pink’. This species produces such nuanced salmon-pink flowers. This young flower’s anthers were about to open and the style, tinged with orange at the center, would then split into five to accept pollen.

Feeding time for pileated woodpecker chick at a cavity nest in Palm Harbor, FL.
Another in a series collected over a week or so. Awesome experience for me to watch these feedings with a camera in my hands, no less.

The little robins in the nest just outside my window are getting bigger every day. Mom and dad are busy all the time feeding them.
About time to start thinking about finding something for dinner before heading back over the hills for home. Shot at my favorite place on the California coast, Pescadero State Beach.

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Colour re-edit of a shot from November 2018. One of the advertising slogans for Scotland's national soft-drink was 'Gets you through' though I only remember "Made in Scotland, from Girders!"
I hope that you have all had an awesome weekend of photography and managed to keep warm. Enjoy!
