Crazy Tuesday theme: missing broken piece
Thank you everyone for your kind comments and favs. All are greatly appreciated. HCT
Because Matter is a slippery slope that can subtly steer one in the wrong direction, discernment is crucial. Since, as Teilhard notes, “there can be no summits without abysses,” 4 it is important to know how to negotiate the slopes and to use all available footholds that lead to the final goal.

Another tiny portion of this wonderful painting.
Three extension tubes to examine this work of art in extreme detail.

This is one of my favorite images, loved the posture of the people framed by two exquisite museum pieces

I decided to share this image for the upcoming #macromondays theme called #GamePieces
Game pieces are physical or digital objects used in board games, tabletop games, and video games to represent players, characters, resources, or other game elements. They come in various shapes, sizes, and materials, depending on the game’s mechanics and theme.
Types of Game Pieces
Player Tokens – Represent individual players on the game board (e.g., Monopoly tokens, Chess pieces).
Meeples – Small, humanoid wooden figures used in Euro-style board games (e.g., Carcassonne).
Dice – Used for randomization, movement, or determining outcomes (e.g., Dungeons & Dragons, Yahtzee).
Cards – Can serve as game pieces when used for actions, characters, or resources (e.g., Magic: The Gathering, Uno).
Tiles – Used to build maps or change the game layout (e.g., Settlers of Catan, Mahjong).
Miniatures – Detailed figurines representing characters or units, often used in strategy and role-playing games (e.g., Warhammer, D&D).
Chips & Tokens – Represent points, money, or resources (e.g., poker chips, victory points in board games).
Board Markers or Pawns – Basic pieces used for movement on a board (e.g., Sorry!, Ludo).

I had a few street art pieces on my "Tasmania list", this one by Smug was the top of the list. It turned out to only be a 5 minute walk from where we stayed.
I wondered if you could win a game of chess if your remaining pieces were only a rook and pawn???? as I am not a chess player I asked AI...and the answer was....you can win a game of chess with a pawn and a rook remaining, primarily through pawn promotion to a stronger piece and then delivering checkmate. The pawn must reach the other side of the board to promote to a queen or a rook, giving you the power needed to checkmate the opposing king. Alternatively, you could win if the opponent loses on time or through resignation under specific circumstances, though this is less about the pieces remaining and more about the game's progression or player actions. Go figure
It took me ages to put this little jigsaw of Taivas together, no wonder she found it puzzling when she tried a few years ago. 😊See photo in first comment box. 😊

:::... Lauv - Modern Loneliness ...:::
I’ve been thinking about my father lately, the person that he made me, the person I’ve become
And I’ve been trying to fill all of this empty, but I’m still so empty
Yeah, I could use some love
And I’ve been trying to find a reason to get up
Been trying to find a reason for this stuff
In bedroom and my closet, the baggage in my heart is still so dark
Modern loneliness
We’re never alone but always depressed,
Love my friends to death but I never call, I never text
You get what you give and you give what you get, so
Modern loneliness
We love to get high but we don’t know how to come down
If I could break my DNA to pieces, rid of all my demons
If I could cleanse my soul
Then I could fill the world with all my problems, but shit that wouldn’t solve them
So I’m left here alone
And I’ve been trying to find a reason to get up
Been trying to find a reason for this stuff
In bedroom and my closet, the baggage in my heart is still so dark
We’re never alone but we’re always depressed

The theme for for "Smile on Saturday" for Saturday 7th of June is "portray the letter P", where, as the name suggests you need to portray the letter P in some way. In this case, I have used pretty pieces of découpage paper from my collection to form the letter P. There is even a pansy in there for good measure! I hope you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile!
Scrapbooking was a popular pastime in Victorian times for both children and adults. Creating a scrapbook was not only a craft project, it was also a way of preserving memories.
In the 1800s, the automated printing press was invented. Suddenly books and printed material became much more widely available. As well as writing in their commonplace books, people began to cut out and stick in printed items. Things like greeting cards, calling cards, postcards, prayer cards, advertising trading cards and newspaper clippings were collected. Some of these books contained a mix of personal journal entries, hand-drawn sketches and watercolours, along with various scraps of printed material. These books were literally books of scraps.
By the 1820s, collectable scraps had become more elaborate. Some items were embossed: a process by which a die (a metal stamp for cutting or pressing) was punched into the reverse side of the paper, giving the front a raised three-dimensional appearance.
In 1837, the first year of Queen Victoria's reign, the colour printing process known as chromolithography was invented. This lead to the production of ‘ready made’ scraps. Brightly coloured and embossed scraps were sold in sheets with the relief stamped out to the approximate shape of the image. These pre-cut scraps were connected by small strips of paper to keep them in place. The laborious task of cutting out small pictures was thus removed, and sales of scraps went soaring. Many of the best-quality scraps of the period were produced in Germany, where bakers and confectioners used small reliefs to decorate cakes and biscuits for special occasions such as christenings, weddings, Christmas and Easter.
These embossed chromolithograph scraps are of German and British origin and date from the 1880s.
Hello, who are you?
I never saw this girl before
I was astonished as can be
Somebody told me she said
you're just a hungry little guy
So I would like to offer me
to bake some cake for you
The sweetest one you've ever tried
A special cake for you
The one that makes you satisfied
Good-bye sadness,
I'm dreamin' while you slip away

Hope you are having a great day? Here is yet another wintry frame taken from Chicago’s south side. As you may notice by now it was pretty cold that day. I really love how warm city glow was contrasting the cold almost frozen lake. What do you think?
The misery of self-isolation...
The song Oh Lonesome Me was written in 1957 by country singer-songwriter Don Gibson. It has been recorded by numerous artists, including Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Neil Young.
For Macro Mondays theme 'Vibrant Minimalism'.
The image was done as a seven shot focus stack. The most tricky and time-consuming part was constructing the 'eye' - I punched out a tiny circle of yellow paper and managed to draw on the black pupil (this took a number of attempts), then I lost several of them in the carpet before I managed to get one to stick on the wood.
No wooden puzzle pieces were harmed in the making of this photograph.
