I was given this Dinky wheelbarrow in around 1950 but it was not long before I had dropped it and bent one of the handles. I then discovered that die cast models are quite brittle as my attempt to straighten it only made matters worse. I ended up with a one-handled wheelbarrow which I still own to this day. Over the years it has also suffered from a bit of paint loss (known as playworn in the trade) but at last it will have its day in the limelight as a Damaged Toy in Macro Mondays!
Macro Mondays
Pick Two
I had a hard time deciding which image to post for Macro Mondays. One of my top three choices. This is three Murano iridescent speckled glass eggs -- three for two!
HMM! Thanks for stopping by and for all of your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

One of my attempts at the "Macro Mondays" theme "Pick Two"
Chosen Words:
CURVED BASKET
Shot with an "Tomioka-Copal 75 mm F 2.8" (enlarging) lens on a Canon EOS R5.
[May '22 Note: This is only the second time I've ever been featured in Explore, so that's very exciting. Thank you for the looks, likes, and comments!]
I started with metallic rock, as there's a ton of iridescent shale in my yard, which is partially dug up at the moment. But it was looking less shiny and more plain rock-like in the shots, so then I started paying attention to the almost-too-small-to-see red dots racing over the surface of the wall on which I was setting up the rock shots. This is far and away the closest I've ever seen one of these nearly microscopic invaders. I looked them up, and they're called clover mites.
I might have taken an easy way out chosen twisted candy, but twisted candies in Swedish colors are a pretty good motive :)
Welsh Poppy (Papaver cambricum). I have quite a few of these poppies in the garden. This shot was taken on a day of sunshine and showers, just after a heavy downpour.
Shot with an 18-55mm kit lens on Nikon D300s. To achieve the magnification seen here for this tiny subject (Twizzler made to hold an overhand knot), 20mm extension tube was attached between the lens and the camera. A red tee-shirt hung couple feet behind the subject provided the background. The colors/tones enhanced in Lightroom, then cropped and saved as JPG file in Photoshop.
An off-camera flash was used to light this subject. The flash was triggered by on-camera flash in commander mode.
Unfortunately, the timestamp on my old camera wasn’t checked (and set properly) before shooting this image around 1 pm PST on Jan 21, 2019. My apologies.

Damaged candy
I didn't think I'd have an entry today but as I prepared a package to send to my granddaughter I dropped and stepped on a little candy cane. It was meant to be...
The #MacroMondays #PickTwo theme - Blue flower
A focus stacked photo taken using a 12mm extension tube, window lit using a white background with ambient light shone onto the flower using a mirror. The usual Photoshop tweaks to colour channels, texture, added haze and a vignette complete the image.
HMM folks.
Macro Mondays "Pick Two: Iridescent Abstract"
Macro image of a burnable DVD surface (3 x 1.5 cm) which has been microwaved. The rainbow lighting effect comes from a flourescent lamp. Other than noise reduction in Photoshop this image is unaltered.
