Macro Mondays: Smoke

marked tree

Flaring up os a matchstick

Matched set of GE B23-7s lead the Minnesota Commercial to Park Jct and across the BNSF to the north. Thanks to Josh for the info.

At first my attention was drawn by the composition of curves and stairs. But then at this very moment the lady, walking the stairs with her bright yellow outfit, seems to complement the broken path of yellow light. Indoor shopping centre at Dusseldorf Germany.

This series is highlighting different aspects of street photography. Key aspects in this particular image are composition, fashion, cultural reflection, the right moment.

My first entry for the 28th round of the Photography Scavenger Hunt. The word was Matches.

River Trent flooding at Gunthorpe, Nottinghamshire.

09 February 2026. The River Trent at Gunthorpe showing it strength and potential destruction. Very clear to see in person, the speed and power of the current at this point. Though pehaps not on any particular photograph. I kept well clear of the waters edge for obvious reasons. It's set to get worse than this over the coming days as more heavy rainfall is predicted.

The area features the historic Gunthorpe Bridge, a vital crossing, and has a long history of river traffic.

The name Gunthorpe refers not to guns but to a Viking woman. Gunnhildr was a common Viking female name, notably in the family of King Cnut, and could be shortened to Gunni. The name Gunthorpe combines Gunnhildr with the Old Norse element þorp meaning 'outlying farm/settlement'.

Two of of my Pola dolls who I treasure so much. They inspire me every single day. Thank you Melissa for letting them come to live with me. For Thursday's Child.

I was able to check off a few boxes here. I haven't shot anything on the NECR since before the take over by the G&W and never any movements over the Millers River bridge. As luck would have it while waiting for a PAS crew to arrive for 27E at Farleys, train 611 came south with a matching trio of orange 6 axles bound for Palmer. The 10mph slow order across the bridge with some brilliant morning light made everything come together for this shot.

I like it when a homeowner

matches their paint colour

to their rhododendron :)

seen eleven years ago

on the streets of Vancouver.

Brukar inte ta några makro kort (pga att jag inte ha den rätta utrustningen förutom en bilig "reverse ring" - vet ej vad den heter på Svenska). Men här kommer mitt bidrag till veckans temat - makro.

Don't normally dabble with macro photography (really don't have the gear for it except a cheap reverse ring) but as it was the weekly challenge for fotosondag I thought I'd give it a go.

The photo is of a match just as it ignites.

A perfect match - in the kitchen. The purple blur along the top left (which I’ve been in two minds about - my internal match) is a plastic chopping board.
