My Redux 2018 theme - Defining beauty.

"There is nothing that makes its way more directly into the soul than beauty" - Joseph Addison

glass

I could also say "back in the day" as I never see anyone playing marbles any more.

Opaque glass marble by candlelight.

Title of poem by Langston Hughes

I dream a world where man

No other man will scorn,

Where love will bless the earth

And peace its paths adorn

I dream a world where all

Will know sweet freedom’s way,

Where greed no longer saps the soul

Nor avarice blights our day.

A world I dream where black or white,

Whatever race you be,

Will share the bounties of the earth

And every man is free,

Where wretchedness will hang its head

And joy, like a pearl,

Attends the needs of all mankind-

Of such I dream, my world!

With so many interesting themes to choose from I went back to March and picked "The Blues" - my photograph is of two water drops colliding causing this unique shape which is not quite seen by the naked eye.The Blues were created by using a single blue gel on my flash, blue food colourant added to the water and a cardboard blue back ground.

Crystal is a type of glass that is made from silica, lead oxide, soda or potash, and other additives. The peak on the side of this crystal bowl (near the centre of the image) is approximately 1" (2.5 cm) high. The red colour is red glass beads inside the bowl. The primary light source is a white candle which is also inside the bowl.

---------------

Taken for the Macro Mondays theme "Redux 2018--My Favorite Theme of the Year", with glass as my chosen favourite.

"You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul." George Bernard Shaw was an Irish playwright, critic, polemicist and political activist (1856-1950).

Leaf .. sprayed with water and shot inside a blue vase.

I think this qualifies for at least two themes of the past twelve months. Monochrome (February 5th) and Vowel (December 10th). I've also been reminded (thanks Eiona) that this would also probably qualify for Circles (April 9th).

Many thanks for all of your faves and comments on my weekly efforts. They are very much appreciated.

A very Happy New Year to you all!

This sloth seems to be hoarding the Christmas chocolate. In the wild, sloths love to eat cacao if they can find it (cacao is the base ingredient for chocolate). For the MM Redux theme, candy.

Ginger is one of the cats on the YWAM base where my wife an I are volunteering this winter. I took this picture yesterday and then used some HDR processing to bring out the blue color and details in Ginger's eye. I chose to redo the March 26th theme - The Blues. HSS and HMM

or a quotes by Anne Frank:

"What a wonderful thought it is that some of the best days of our lives haven't even happened yet"

This weeks Macro Mondays entry under the theme Redux 2018. (Favourite theme from the year) I chose trinkets.

Macro Mondays redux 2018 - favourite theme of the the year.

With the last challenge of 2018 - Redux I chose the February 12 challenge "In a Bottle". I placed sand, shells and rocks in a small bottle which stands 2.75 inches tall. I achieved bokeh with a bit of tinsel.

ME LO TENGO STRETTO PER TUTTO IL NUOVO ANNO.

L'Angelo Custode indica l’esistenza di un angelo per ogni uomo, che lo guida, lo protegge, dalla nascita fino alla morte, è citata nel Libro di Giobbe, ma anche dallo stesso Gesù, nel Vangelo di Matteo, quando indicante dei fanciulli dice: “Guardatevi dal disprezzare uno solo di questi piccoli, perché vi dico che i loro angeli nel cielo vedono sempre la faccia del Padre mio che è nei cieli”. La Sacra Scrittura parla di altri compiti esercitati dagli angeli, come quello di offrire a Dio le nostre preghiere e sacrifici, oltre quello di accompagnare l’uomo nella via del bene.

It follows the theme of July 23 - "Photography Gear"

Happy New Year to all MM lovers. May 2019 be sharp, in focus and full of inspiration!

Missed this theme last May, but this fall I have been enjoying watching our blueberry bush leaves slowly turn various shades of red, yellow and orange. By now many have fallen off, but it still looks quite spectacular.

HMM!! And Happy New Year!!
