Yellow miniature roses found in the garden during our trip. I was very lazy to change to a macro lens, so I use a normal zoom to shoot most of the shots including bees, butterfly or flowers. How is it?:)

The kitchen wagon fits perfectly in the lot reserved for the chair in the counter, if you tilt it's wheels the other way.

The idea here is to make real objects into fakes by using tilt-shift. If these cars & the truck look like matchbox toys, then I accomplished playing with your eyes. Tell me if I did well or I failed.

These miniature dolls are less than 6" tall. They're hand sculpted with polymer clay, painted with acrylics, then dressed in handmade clothes.
I guess I have a thing for early American writing desks! I made the one on the far left years ago and could not resist the other 2 vintage desks. I added all of the accessories the past 2 days. I modified store bought books, made some of my own books, cut stacks of writing paper, made ink wells from feathers and beads, made a few envelopes, and rolled paper and tied the rolls with thread. I used ecru resume paper so it would look a little more like parchment.
Each desk has a place in my dollhouse - one on each floor, but they photographed much better in the natural light by the window.
This scrapbook paper is new from AC Moore. I bought all of it - 20 sheets! I had hoped to wall paper my log cabin with it, but it will only really work as the floor. I'm keeping it for future dollhouse dreams. I still have a huge dollhouse kit to build.
I just want to craft until my heart is content for my last few days of summer. This desk project has been in my head for over a year. So good to get it out!
Note: That one book in the tall cabinet with the white stripes was bugging me after photographing it, so I recovered it in black textured paper.

I took this picture in Cologne, Germany (please don't miss my 360 degrees
Panorama of Cologne). I've used the "tilt shift process" (selective focus) to
simulate a miniature scene... :) As always, thanks for watching!!

Miniature
A poem by Katie Gabrielle
Miniature You
Miniature We
People look funny
From Way Up High
Twist and Turn
The Camera Lens
Focus In
Focus about
Where the H*** did the Pilot go?
He leaped out fool
And he can't fly
Now he's a pancake
That fell from the sky
Don't cry for him
He added color to the scenery
Red Yellow Blue
And add a few screams
Drama Drama
Twist and Turn
Crash and Burn
It's fun being up here in the jet
When the miniature world
Looks tiny yet
Don't be dumb and open
That door
Because you won't
Land on a pillow
In the Miniature world
You'll be dead
My first miniature wedding cakes. Size 4 cm for the two tiers and 5 cm the three tiers.
A good way to start taking photos with my new camera (Canon eos 450d): I'm a beginner in this field but I love, LOVE it...so any suggestion will be very much appreciated!

I'll Be Sailing to the Open Blue Sea
A poem by Peter S. Quinn
I'll be sailing to the open blue sea
Where the silvery waves are going out
With the wings of fresh morning that's quite free
Through the daydreaming without any doubt
Every hope shall be rolling tall and brave
Within billows so high in the shaking
Through rippling of waves the ocean gave
To the in fjords and gales in their making
We're winners to new corners of the world
To the faraway islands and their shore
With every circling wave that there whirled
And are in need of fresh dreams to explore
I'll be sailing to hope in my open boat
Bringing music from my heart that I wrote
Happy Miniature Sunday!
Nearly forgot to do one this week!
Join our group Miniature Sunday - HMS! and learn how to make these fake miniature shots!
I love to see my contacts there!
Sundays seem to come round so quickly!
HMS! Happy Miniature Sunday!
View LARGE and hopefully it will still look small ;-)
View On Black is on and off because I replaced the picture...it will return some time this year....

2nd Entry for the online 'Photographic Weekly Competition' ... the theme this week is 'Life in Miniature'.
Backdrop by 'Photo Boards'
Last week I was working on some props for an upcoming doll diorama of mine. Among them were these 50 miniature books in 1/6th scale (Licca, Blythe, Momoko, Barbie, etc). :) That was a loooot of folding and gluing!
Miniatures in playscale are not nearly as common as typical 1/12th dollhouse items, hence me doing my own props! I had fun picking the sort of covers for books I wanted displayed on little shelves. It was important the books were on diverse topics. Many are scans of my own books, sized down to miniature scale.
There's Anne Frank (my love for her knows no bounds), Alice in Wonderland, vintage science fiction, ghost stories, childrens fairy tales, cooking books, dictionaries, craft and sewing books, manga, and so on. Lots of books a dolly would be interested in. :)
Next: fabric and leather covers! And then actual 1/6th scale furniture.

The LMax is done by lilushop.etsy.com and well very beautiful as you can see.
Chair is from Reac Japan.
The table is from Elf Miniatures (she does great modern furniture and has some Reac Japan chairs for sale as well)
The book on top of the shelf is by bluekittyminiatures.etsy.com
I have tons of mini books that I got from Mercedes libertybiberty.blogspot.com/
And many minis are from Re-ment (the cutting board, drawers, pens, glass)
The big shelf is from dollhouse emporium
Vøringsfossen, one of the big waterfalls thundering down from the Hardangervidda plateau, has a total drop of 182 m of which 163 m are vertically down. It is one of the easier accessible waterfalls, having a hotel nearby and a large parking lot at the top. Therefore I chose the more exciting route, by foot into the gorge! :-)
Some images from my Wife's garden.
Many thanks to all my Flickr photo stream followers I have now more than 1.8 million views, thank you. Thanks for viewing my photos and for any favourites and comments, it is very much appreciated.
I love scrolling through Flickr looking at everyone's images, getting new ideas.

This is a "Steinerne Rinne" ("stone runnel", couldn't find the correct translation).
Over a long period of time calcium carbonate from the water in the runnel builds up to a "wall". They build up to 5 meters high and 150m long. Isn't nature amazing?
We all have to act on climate crisis now - only a joint effort can save the environment as we know it!
Cholla is a cactus genus native to the American Southwest and northern Mexico. Cholla generally are quite large, and very nasty, thornwise. This one is about 6 inches tall, and the tag claims it is a miniature cholla. We'll see how small it stays. I don't have the species, the tag only says Cyldropuntia sp. For 2016: one photo each day (236/366)

My first attempt at this facinating world. I will have to check through my photos to find a more suitable one for next week.
Thanks to Iarigan for the idea.
