Conus textile, common name the textile cone or the cloth of gold cone is a venomous species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Conidae, the cone snails, cone shells or cones.
Like all species within the genus Conus, these snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all. The conotoxin of this species is extremely dangerous to humans.
Mill dam. First industrial revolution. The power of water was used to produce textiles. Until the Second World War, the valley was densely populated. Later, nature reclaimed its rights. Today, it's the city's green belt, which you can explore on a popular cycle path.

This is one of four displays created by textile artist Kia Love. The rounded bench nicely provides a frame for the abstracted lines and circles within the fabrics. Happy Bench Monday
For Macro Mondays cloth/textile
Title comes from a poem Robert Herrick wrote in the 17th century:
A sweet disorder in the dress
Kindles in clothes a wantonness:—
A lawn about the shoulders thrown
Into a fine distractión,—
An erring lace, which here and there
Enthrals the crimson stomacher,—
A cuff neglectful, and thereby
Ribbands to flow confusedly,—
A winning wave, deserving note,
In the tempestuous petticoat,—
A careless shoe-string, in whose tie
I see a wild civility,—
Do more bewitch me, than when art
Is too precise in every part.

Fifth or Seventh Century AD from Akhmin.

Thank you in advance for your views, comments, and faves. They are much appreciated!
My mother-in-law likes to help me with ideas for Macro Mondays. On a recent trip to pick my wife up from visiting her mom, I got this fabric "necklace." This unusual accessory was a gift that my mother-in-law thought would make a great Macro Monday subject. The theme that week was Made of Metal, so I told her I would hold onto it until there was an appropriate theme. I think this is the week. HMM

actually colour photo - really surprised and delighted with what custom white balance can do with white sheets
also wanted to try to tell a story with the shot - create a landscape
so the fuzz up the main ridge is like people trying to get to the peek so the ridge and top of the ridge are in focus - as the rest of the range falls away.
And there's this big light in the upper left - have you climbed on these kind of days?
ok, it may be better in my head than in this shot :)
(in searching for something similar in the BIG just now, here's an example cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0923/0826/products/nepal-mounta... here i guess the fuzz is more like a tree line and this i1.wp.com/www.kirstenasmithphotography.com/Global-Travels...)
i'd be delighted to hear your thoughts on how to re-work this to get a better image....thank you
This weeks Macro Mondays theme is Cloth/Textile. I couldn't think of a more modern textile than the "hook" of "hook and loop", AKA Velcro.
HMM
I had no chance to shooting in the past few days. I feel frustrated it :'(
So I rummaged through the room. And...I got it !!

Blue moon, keep a-shinin' bright
Blue moon, keep on a-shinin' bright
You're gonna bring-a me back-a my baby tonight
Blue moon, keep a-shinin' bright
Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
A-well-a, it was on one moonlight night
Stars shinin' bright
Whispered on high
Love's said goodbye
Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Well I said, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
A-well-a, it was on one moonlight night
Stars shinin' bright
Whispered on high
Love's said goodbye
Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shinin'
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
