For the Macro Mondays Theme: White
I'm not really an origami specialist or artist, so I prefer to call it paper folding, so expectations are less high. In the Netherlands we call this a "muizentrapje", literally translated into English it would be a "mouse ladder". To be honest, I don't know the actual English translation for this. They are made from 2 paper strips folded together, not very creative for an adult, but as children we made the most fantastic creations with this.
Happy Macro Mondays
Thanks for your time, faves and comments, it's much appreciated

Seeing as Spring seems to be in full swing -- how about a dash of color to go along with it? Well this Paper wasp didn't disappoint, bumped into it taking a quick afternoon power nap along the forest trail... Didn't pay any mind to me snapping away. 😌 (#Polistes ?)

I used to spend hours every Holiday season making paper snowflakes. I had just about as much fun creating these for this photo as well. Love the shadows and the snips where the scissors went too far. Macro Mondays: Just White Paper. HMM! For 117 pictures in 2017: no. 11 Childish Delights.
The previous photo of this model had too much light, so I wanted to show it again.
I didn't remember how to fold it, so I had to search for the old one, unfold it and re-do it.
I had mentioned some influences for this star before, but now that I've refolded it, the model it is more similar to is definitively J.C.Nolan's Andrea's Rose.
Folded from a square of 20 cm on the side of Stardream paper.

For this week's Macro Monday theme of "white on white", I used strips of white paper photographed on another sheet of white paper. I tried photographing curls and spirals but wasn't that happy with the results apart from one or two. So most of my photos were of a strip gently folded to form loops about 1 cm high, stuck to the other sheet with double sided tape, and using a light to throw shadows. My first attempts used a bright white LED torch and the photos came out very blue - not really what I was looking for in terms of the theme but interesting nevertheless. So I tried again with a halogen light source and that was better. I played around with clarity and contrast and must admit I like the darker, higher contrast images this produced, but was worried they wouldn't be quite right for the theme. So I did a few with less contrast and clarity, which gives a gentler, softer image.
Today, my Paper White Narcissus bulbs bloomed, a sweet breath of live in the midst of winter! The three bulbs had been a gift from a very considerate student. Thank you, J.W.; the flowers both look & smell wonderful! I put up three pictures, because I couldn't choose between them & felt we all probably need a hint of Spring! January 26, 2010 in Columbia County, New York, USA.
Paper whites (Narcissus papyraceus, a sub-species of Narcissus tazetta) are popular indoor plants for winter and the holiday season. Unlike other narcissus, paper whites don't require a chilling period, so forcing them is as easy as putting the bulbs in water and waiting. The fragrant flowers bloom within about 3 weeks of planting, for almost instant gratification.
went shopping today, discovered that we have an urban outfitters like a week ago! I bought this dress, two sweaters, and a really cute top that was originally 50 dollars but marked it down to 9.99 for no apparent reason, made my day =)
Ha ha. Anyways the internet also went down hence the late title/despcription so apologies.
strobist info - one b800 with bounce umbrella directly in front.
Just playing around with abstract macro.
This is 4 sheets of plain white paper, folded in half and clipped together with clothes pegs.
It is lying flat on a reflective stone kitchen bench top in dark room.
I placed purple and a blue RGB lights behind and at the end of the paper for effect.
The image is rotated anti clockwise..
The lights are Neewer RGB2 lights.. Can change to any colour temp and intensity and can be controlled by smartphone.
This is a photograph of white tissue paper over my computer screen in front of one of my photographs.
I've first seen this corrugation authored fresh by someone at facebook. I decided that I want to fold it after reverse-engineering. Later I found that I already had the same corrugation in my own favs at flickr! (I think you can find there everything now). And of course I completely forgot about it
