I'm refolding my Lion, bringing several changes. This is the first draft using a foil paper. Now the back is closed, and I've managed the layers of the mane and the front legs to bring more details and have more freedom for the position of the head. I've worked hard to bring mane to the front below the muzzle and not have only mane on the back of the head to simulate an older lion. The muzzle include many improvement that can't be really see here
Now I have to fold it again and again to fix the changes and find a good folding sequence.
This was going to be just another attempt at remembering how to fold this model and that's why I chose this ordinary paper, but I was able to do it from start to end.
Folded from a square of colored copy paper of 20 cm on the side.
great model, highly recommended. This is my first attempt and i am thinking of folding it from other types of papers too ^^
For this week's Macro Mondays challenge "Paper art" I looked into my paper and postcard box.
I found this small vintage postcard. On the opposite side is a photo of Ballinhaus, Chilehaus and Ibsenhaus. This postcard was sent in the year 1926 from Hamburg, Germany. The art of paper.

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 ?)

In the movie "An officer and a gentleman" The Port Townsend Paper Mill plays a supporting role. "Way to go Paula!"
As I read the Macro Monday theme for this week the first thing that popped into my head was "Litter". I have to confess there is nothing artistic or intriguing about people cocking up the world with trash. The only thing I can say about this is that there is paper and it was easy to find. And at least it's not plastic. Feel free to comment pro or con I can't imagine too many will "fave" a cigarette butt.
A Paper Wasp on the Goldenrod.
This area of Black Hawk Park has a lot of Goldenrod which attracts a variety of beetles, wasps, bees and butterflies.
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.
Once again, Big Girl's creativity played a part in completing the topic. She was kind enough to design this necklace just for me, made entirely from printer paper and secured by glue stick.

Been experimenting with the softer/dreamy tones, it's actually quite fun and I'm loving how the edits are turning out. I showed my father this picture and he told me he wasn't a fan, but I don't know...there is something that I absolutely admire about this. Hope you all agree with me!

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.

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.
