THEME: #SIDELIT
SUBJECT: JACK-O-LANTERN
(not quite 2.5" horizontally. This is a plastic 2" round jack-o-lantern. There is a battery-operated light inside but opted on turning it off.)
A small toy ice-rink - the figures moving around (on magnates) are around 2 cm tall. As a tradition, we try to go ice skating at Christmas. And we always enjoy setting up this ice-rink for the holidays. #Tradition #MacroMondays
Macro Mondays. Pasta
My fun take on Pasta
I used orecchiette, farfalle, rotelle, spaghetti, and tiny rotelle pasta to make this little picture.
I still have paint and super glue on my hands, probably until next week.

Five small beads (image spans about 18 mm across)
Fujifilm X-A1 with Minolta MC Rokkor-QF Macro 50mm f/3.5 at f/8 mounted on Minolta Autobellows III (via Fotodiox MD-FX adapter). The lens was tilted and shifted towards the left and the bellows was extended about 33mm giving a total extension of about 70mm.
The beads in the foreground were lit from above and to the left with a Nikon SB-26 at 1/8 power through a grid and the beads in the background were lit via a Braun Hobby 17BC with a snoot.
BTS images show the setup (although without flashes) here:

Timothy Whites was a British chain of dispensing chemist and houseware stores.
The original Timothy Whites was a ships' chandlers and general store in Portsmouth, started in 1848 by Timothy White who qualified as a pharmacist in 1869. By 1890, Whites was one of four British pharmacists with over ten branches. Whites sold hardware as well as that which was normally found at a retail chemist's. In 1904 he had his company incorporated as Timothy Whites Ltd.
In 1935, Timothy Whites merged with Taylors Drug Co. Ltd. to form Timothy Whites & Taylors; the shops themselves were named either simply "Timothy Whites" or "Timothy Whites & Taylors". The company was taken over by Boots Pure Drug Co. in 1968. Immediately before the takeover, there were 614 Timothy Whites shops, which had had a combined turnover of approximately £33m in the year before the acquisition. As a result of the rationalisation that followed the takeover, Boots rebranded and absorbed the pharmaceutical side of the business, leaving Timothy Whites with just 196 shops that sold only housewares. The Timothy Whites name eventually disappeared in 1985.

I only got one shot at this one because for the second I moved, some yellow leases behind the subject and in so doing I touched the blade of grass and the the drop fell to the ground.
Taken for the Macro Mondays theme "Vegetable(s)" on Monday 18/01/2016
I wanted to try a different technique, so found an old Ikea photo frame, took out the picture, balanced it between two chairs, put a desk lamp underneath and some baking paper on the upper surface of the glass. I then sliced various vegetables at various thicknesses.
This was a fairly thinly sliced red onion, which seemed to have just the right combination of colour and translucence for the effect I was trying to achieve. I'm quite pleased with the end result! Hope you like it too..HMM
even here when we go hunting around the apt, she can find something for macromondays ~grin~
it's an empty mesh make-up bag.
HMM, all :)
looks very cool on black :)
