Passing through Tunnel 40 along the Colorado River, an eastbound Union Pacific coal train traverses Little Gore Canyon east of Azure, Colorado, on August 21, 2014.
The threads that connect us to the world are our survival strategy. They are created and destroyed by us and by others. Fragile like the threads that the spider weaves, they are the measure of vulnerability, persistence, the entanglement of life. And in the poetic reflection on the self, the will, and the world, we will find this fragility in another perfect poem by Carlos Queiroz (1907-1949) Aranha, a masterpiece of Portuguese poetry.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Enjoy.
The Macro Monday theme for 1/30 is screw. This choice fits the three parameters of the theme for MM. It also has garnered the most views and faves. I like the other three for totally different reasons, so I think I’ll dither for a bit before choosing.
Btb, I had an incredibly difficult time getting any of these to post. I finally discovered a work around but I’m hoping that my iPhone and Flickr app learn how to play nicely together again— SOON

Shot for Looking Close on Friday - theme "Spools of thread"
okay, I admit to a rather thick thread.
THREAD is the topic for Monday 20 February 2017 Group Our Daily Challenge
Yesterday morning I noticed this smallish web in the garden. I set up the camera above the web, and placed the flash below. The resulting colors were a surprise - it looked like diffraction of some kind was going on. On the web (haha) I found that "The thin linear threads of spider webs occasionally act as optical slits, decomposing white light by diffraction. The resulting colors aren't as pure as those of refraction phenomena, as in a rainbow or in an ice halo....The diameter of the minute water droplets composing mid-level clouds is similar to the diameter of spider web threads -- a few microns or even less." epod.usra.edu/blog/2005/01/spider-web-diffraction.html
In July 1984 on Wyoming’s Sherman Hill, a westbound Union Pacific grain train waits at Dale Junction, Wyoming, on Track 3, as an eastbound reefer train sits over on Track 1. Crossing over from Track 1 to Track 2 is a hot westbound led by a DDA40X and two SD40-2s, with the head end brakemen from both stopped trains on the ground making an inspection of the train threading the needle.

I found these rusty, crusty scissors in an antique store--they are probably useless for anything except photo props.
Humankind has not woven the web of life.
We are but one thread within in.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
All things are bound together. All things connect.
