It dawned on me that my stationary was stationary. I found this cool white pen the other day, but it is only cool if you have black paper.
That is my handwriting by the way. I have jars full of pens and pencils and I usually carry around a Fountain pen. I love writing on paper.
Happy Macro Mondays
Little denizen patiently stayed put here for several minutes.. at Afton State Park, east central Minnesota.
The grey heron (Ardea cinerea) is a long-legged predatory wading bird of the heron family, Ardeidae, native throughout temperate Europe and Asia and also parts of Africa. It is resident in much of its range, but some populations from the more northern parts migrate southwards in autumn.
A bird of wetland areas, it can be seen around lakes, rivers, ponds, marshes and on the sea coast. It feeds mostly on aquatic creatures which it catches after standing stationary beside or in the water or stalking its prey through the shallows.
Standing up to 1 m tall, adults weigh from 1 to 2 kg (2.2 to 4.4 lb). They have a white head and neck with a broad black stripe that extends from the eye to the black crest. The body and wings are grey above and the underparts are greyish-white, with some black on the flanks. The long, sharply pointed beak is pinkish-yellow and the legs are brown.
This image was taken on the River Wear at Durham, in the North East of England.

A longer exposure of the Lorain Lighthouse renders only the lights from a passing boat visible. Typically, I'll zoom in slightly more for greater clarity on the lighthouse, but I wanted to capture the wave/wake in the immediate foreground created by the same boat as well.
Een mobiele telefoonhouder die ik regelmatig gebruik. Dit is de achterkant, omdat ik beloofd heb, de bedrijfsnaam buiten beeld te houden.
A mobile phone holder that I use regularly. This is the back, because I promised to keep the company name out of the picture.
The basics of colors, RGB.
Added some fragments of the colors on the base to make the composition more vibrant.

MACRO MONDAYS 'Stationary' theme
Bought this staple remover in 1967 when I started my first job in Canada, was told I would need it to deal with the reams of paperwork, they were right!
Taken for Our Daily Challenge: repetition
I am a stationary junkie!!! When I first saw this cute ~ and repetitive! ;) ~ flower patterned notebook, I just new I wanted it. Even though the pens look like pencils, they are real pens that work...the erasers click down to open up the pen. Neat eh?
The arcanly Apperence of this tiny smooth Wave, spheric and light: I need not move the Himalaya to find Contemplation.
Honestly this Standing Wave is a very noisy result of open Sluices and the recoil at the entering Side.
Covered from the Water's Rush Sound, focussing the Wave, brings me a while out of the Scene, in the Middle of the City.
I'm very fascinated from the stationary flight by Kestrels.So I've tried very often to get a capture, where is movement in the wings.
Paper is a Chinese Han dynasty invention from before Christ the west previously used papyrus of various grades for normal use and vellum for recording important documents.
Pencils with a wooden casing are an Italian invention from the 1560's prior to that people used square sticks of very valuable graphite imported from Cumbria in England from a closely guarded mine the only known deposit of pure graphite.
The Germans and French both worked out methods to make artificial pencils using graphite mixed with clay though initially it was not as good a product as the English pure graphite pencils.
Rulers are an ancient tool with the Indus valley Mohenjo-Daro ruler being divided into units corresponding to 1.32 inches (33.5 mm) and these are marked out in decimal subdivisions with amazing accuracy, to within 0.005 inches (0.13 mm). Ancient bricks found throughout the region have dimensions that correspond to these units.

St Andrews harbour is home to a fleet of around a dozen small fishing vessels, landing high quality shellfish from around the nearby shores, which are sold locally, nationally and exported. A small, but growing, number of pleasure craft are also based within the sheltered waters of the Inner basin. Quoted from the St Andrews Harbour Trust website.
