For the Looking-Close-on-Friday theme "Reflection on White Background "
I have put a silver carton for soft reflections underneath and some white sheets on top and at the sides to have the reflections on white. (A light from the side.) Not easy to achieve as with different light situations greyish or yellowish tones were likely to sneak in.

This gold, pearl and amethyst brooch features two particularly fine brilliant cut amethysts and nine seed pearls. It is Edwardian and with its Art Nouveau design, was made in the first decade of the twentieth century. It is very likely a brooch made for a suffragette, featuring two of the three universal suffrage colours of white and purple. It was possibly worn against something green as the representation of the final colour. Brooches and other jewellery like this was a subtle way for suffragettes to communicate their allegiance to the movement with one another.
(Private collection)
Edwardian jewellery is renowned for its delicate, beautifully crafted designs. In contrast to Victorian jewellery, many pieces created during the Art Nouveau period were made in a very feminine fashion, using finer smaller stones and very light settings made possible by using platinum.
The theme for “Looking Close on Friday” for the 18th of March is “jewellery (selective colour)”. I decided to select the purple of the amethysts as my selective colour, and accentuated it to draw out some of the blues that were created in the stone created by the black velvet on which the brooch sits. I hope you like my choice of the theme this week, and that it makes you smile.
Love the cherry blossoms, too bad they don't last very long.
Happy looking close....on Friday!

Looking Close… on Friday,

Artificial tree created with soft drawn copper wire, artificial berries, LED lights, Gaffer’s Tape and artificial snow.
The theme for Looking Close…on Friday is Clothes Pegs. These are clothes clips that can hook over a railing, fence, or nail, so a clothesline is unnecessary. 💙❓❓
I pruned the roses back hard much earlier than usual this year, due to the wet summer and lots of mildew and other problems. I was rewarded with this bright winter rose. Floribunda ‘Friesia’

A close-up, silhouette of a 3-D greeting card. The card is a Valentine’s card I gave to my wife this year. It says “I lava you!” on the front. When opened, two volcanoes pop-up each spewing sparks of hearts and being connected by the heart cloud. The starry night sky was simulated with fiery lights (hidden from view) illuminating a sheet of glitter paper from below. The fiery lights also provided the illuminated horizon effect.

Not all a spirals are circular in shape and Turtle Spirals are an excepted mathematical shape, a type of square spiral. Look carefully and you can see the spiral take shape from the centre of the mat.
Wicker-made objects are popular tourist buys in many African countries. When we moved back to the U.K. from Kenya in 1990, we brought with us several mats that we had been using in our house there. That means that this mat is well over 41yrs old but still looks like it was bought last week!
Wicker is a very resilient, sturdy and pliable natural plant material and the most common source in Kenya is banana leaves but it can be made from many parts of plants.
The spiral pattern that is used to make them is very common!
Do you see it? I was really surprised because I captured this one completely by accident…

Today I am entering this moth that has been on our front porch wall for days now. I submitted this for the theme Small Animals with Wings for Looking Close …on Friday!
Some varieties of plum tree have very sharp spines or spikes on them particularly an American variety or if they have been originally grafted from a blackthorn root stock.
This plum tree in our garden just decided to die some years ago for no known reason. I keep it because the birds use it a a perch and I also hang bird feeders from it. Maybe one day I will dig it up?
