My Dad was 7 when he made this at school . He told me hiis Mum (My Nana) would bring it out every Christmas and put it under the Christmas Tree. As you can see it is very fragile it now sits in my cabinet on the top shelf. Dad is 82 now so it's def stood the test of time! For the Looking close ....on Friday group theme Made of Paper.. Have a great day and weekend folks ;0)
Native paper wasps (Polistes sp.) making a nest in my backyard. An egg has been laid in each of the compartments, but they have not yet sealed them. They started to get aggressive and tried to sting me, so I didn't wait around to watch them seal up each compartment!
For Looking Close…on Friday theme of Paper Clips. Here is a mini doll holding a paper clip “trombone” surrounded by colorful paper clips.
Not quite whiter than white. I enjoyed this challenge but couldn't get this without the blue tint. Will revisit another day and play with white balance settings more.
Macro Mondays: Just White Paper HMM!
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !!
Today is a pink or purple day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Smile on Saturday is creative with toilet paper. The first thing that came to my mind was the pandemic toilet paper world wide shortage. How can we forget about this epic event in human history ? People were stocking and hoarding toilet paper like it was going out of style ! In Montreal we had a limit of how many rolls of toilet paper we could get per person. The struggle was real ! However, it wasn’t the first shortage of toilet paper in my lifetime. I clearly remember a time, in communist Poland, when toilet paper was worth almost as much as 24 carats gold. Toilet paper shortages are happening often in Cuba as well. But, as you can see my wooden mannequin is ready and he has lots of rolls only for him, since he is living alone. I made those tiny toilet paper rolls, all by myself, during the pandemic lockdown … that is how bored I was after several weeks of being inside. Of course, those are useless for an adult human normal size during the toilet paper shortage… let just hope that it will never happened again. I hope that my picture will make you smile !!! Happy Smile on Saturday my friends !
Mucho, mucho amor for you my friends !! Have a beautiful day !!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !
"Looking close... on Friday!" and "paper design".
I have a large collection of paper napkins from all over the world, because I used to do decoupage a long time ago. Now I use them mainly to decorate Easter eggs and this year I did it with my granddaughter who was delighted with that way of
decoration.
Have a great weekend ahead and thank you for visiting!
HLCoF!

Originally taken for Macro Mondays @ Paper but a huge winter storm knocked out all the power in town and was unable to have internet access.
Nice to have blue skies today.
Does anybody use road maps anymore ?
Happy Wednesday Macro :-)
……’Pink’ & ‘Paper’ being the two I picked from the two lists for Macro Mondays theme ‘Pick Two’. I used Semolina as sand and a little frog measuring circa ½“ by 1” taking shade under the Pink Cocktail Parasol. HMM…..Alan:-)

The “line_up“ is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The “liners” are made out of paper (Din A3/A4),
oil paint and graphite. The theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers.

Because darkroom paper is orthochromatic, the colour response isn't what you might expect - the petals of this sunflower are actually yellow and the background should be black ...
Fingertips for MacroMondays, and a wonderful tool for putting thoughts on paper. I wanted to use the opportunity to combine two passions of mine for this task on MacroMondays
Collecting pens (and using them) became for me, like photography, a passionate hobby. While a picture seen through my eyes gives another take on the world and on my surroundings, the pen, gives my thoughts a shape, a code, readable and understandable for the rest of the world. I think, both activities involve some kind of every-day-magic, we rarely think about.
