The ninety and nine are with dreams,

content but the hope of the world made new,

is the hundredth man who is grimly bent on making

those dreams come true

(Edgar Allan Poe)

The macromonday theme for 2/8 is saturated color (vibrant minimalism) and the confections to decorate bakery products sprang to mind. They were shaken into a slightly smaller than 3 inch circular form which was then carefully taken away. .....

there are 2 other possibilities which are more macro, if this doesn’t pass muster.

This is a photo of a microfibre cloth use for cleaning lenses and eyeglasses. HMM!

This one is two months old. Sorry for that, but as I was not at home over the week and didn't have a macro along - there was no chance to produce anything new. Apart from that, this one seems just right for the theme.

Theme : "Holiday Lights" - December 21, 2020

This creature looked up at me from a driftwood pile near the water line. I can't even remember at what beach it was, because that's what I always do - strolling along the water, looking down for shells and fancy looking driftwood that can tell a story.

Have a fun and HMM.

I don't have a "Lockdown song", I have many...

Music is one of the best way to keep my sanity when things go bad in my country during the pandemic, and believe me they have been worst than anyone can suppose.

I love to hear Pop, Rock, Classic between other genders of music. For this theme I have chosen the music of Queen. I know that some lyrics are a bit depressive (as in Bohemian Rhapsody), but others are so uplifiting and the melodies absolutely brilliant.

I found a little wood music box, a special gift from my daughter, that plays some notes of Bohemian Rhapsody.
