Well, my first attempt at the second 365 went awry. Darn Pro-HDR ghosting on the iPhone... That's not how my stream rolls.
So, here's attempt number two. One iPhone, one rather desperate looking Christmas tree, and some left over wrapping paper. Voila! I made two days of 365 even with a hiccup.
Canon 6D + 100mm Macro f/2.8

Looking at the CP of Rhombic Flowers (Eric Gjerde), you can detect three molecules, so I folded them on a small grid 1:32 and then you get different images. They are all folded from white glassine, but to give the faces some color, I used two sheet of different color as background. See other face here and here. And the star here. Which one do you like ?
I also tried to fold it with colored paper, but got a bit 'crazy' of the pattern-lines, so I stopped. It still remains a interesting figure though, it's my variation of Rhombic Flowers by Eric Gjerde.
I decided to use recycled paper products to wrap christmas gifts this year. I used kraft paper as wrapping paper, and made a reycled paper bow instead of using a store-bought plastic ribbon bow. I seriously don't know why they don't maker paper bows; it only makes sense considering the fact that people just throw it away after they open the gift.

It's Christmas time, which means that Sinatra comes out of her yearly hibernation to snap a Christmas photo for all of my Flickr friends.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you! Thank you for making 2014 so very special.
On a side note, I feel like I nailed the lighting for this shot! Maybe it was the white paper giving me a white balance, but dang! Dis' gurl looks fine!
Natasha "helps" me wrap Christmas presents by lounging on top of the wrapping paper rolls. "Thanks, Cat!"

Paper - I kept this wrapping paper from Christmas because I really liked the Rotterdam themed icons and text that was printed on it.
I had not previously really noticed this growing collection of florist's bouquet wrapping. My wife likes to save them - her odd habit has allowed my odd photographic habit an ideal subject to test out a "new" ancient lens.
Christmas cards & wrapping paper, bokeh, vintage fountain pen (not that you can tell) oh my!
The magic of Christmas that makes even the meanest folks somewhat softer for a little while.

Lucky enough to receive these delicious looking chocolates for Christmas — can't allow myself to eat them until I’ve finished thoroughly photographing them!!
PADDY: "Thank you very much for my wonderful hand-made birthday card and thoughtful presents! I love them, and feel very special and very spoiled. This makes it a very special birthday indeed!"
SCOUT: "Can we eat one of these chocolate teddy bear lollipops now Paddy? Grumbly tummy Paddy! Grumbly tummy Daddy!" *Rubs tummy vigorously.*
PADDY: "Hullo everyone! Do you know what? Bears have two birthdays. Do you know what else? Today is one of my birthdays! And do you know what else? Today is my Daddy's birthday too! Isn't that a wonderful coincidence!"
My Paddington Bear came to live with me in London when I was two years old (many, many years ago). He was hand made by my Great Aunt and he has a chocolate coloured felt hat, the brim of which had to be pinned up by a safety pin to stop it getting in his eyes. The collar of his mackintosh is made of the same felt. He wears wellington boots made from the same red leather used to make the toggles on his mackintosh.
He has travelled with me across the world and he and I have had many adventures together over the years. He is a very precious member of my small family.
Scout is a recent addition to our little family. He was a gift to Paddy from my friend. He is a Fair Trade Bear hand knitted in Africa. His name comes from the shop my friend found him in: Scout House. He tells me that life was very different where he came from, and Paddy is helping introduce him to many new experiences. Scout catches on quickly, and has proven to be a cheeky, but very lovable member of our closely knit family.
Day 11 for the 25 Days of Christmas theme.
This was taken on Christmas Eve of our tree last year - yes those are all presents under & around the tree. LOL!!
We are having a time with the lights on our tree this year and havent been able to decorate it yet - grrrrrrrr.
HDR used on this. Thought it made an interesting effect on the tree. :)
What is it?
Since joining Flickr a few years back and even more recently, since starting my 365 project, I have developed so many really special contacts and friendships.
I'm so very grateful for the wonderful and often detailed comments I receive from so many of you, each and every day. You are all responsible for putting a smile on my face every day!
One of the things that has touched me most are the wonderful endearments I have received from so many of you, with regard to my 'red project. The messages, thoughts of red (and of myself), as you go about your day, and the dedicated and inspired images and posts, all of which I am so very grateful for, and so delighted by each and every time.
The other day I received a message from one of my dear Flickr friends. I would love to mention her name here, but she may prefer to remain annoymous . . . but my wonderful friend you know who you are :)
While out shopping with her husband recently, they had come across something and thought of me straight away and said 'I simply must have it' . . . I was so incredibly touched. Just the message alone made my day and has made me smile ever since.
Not only that, but to think that someone I have never personally met was thinking of me and thought enough of me to actually purchase the item and send it to me. Such a beautiful thought and even more beautiful gesture :)
When I told the story to a friend the other day she was absolutely blown away . . . she said she loved hearing stories like this one because it resorted her faith in the world and human kind.
This special gift arrived via snail mail today . . . wrapped beautifully in red! It just had to be my photo of the day. Thank you so much my dear Flickr friend . . . beautiful people with big and beautiful hearts.
Now for what is it . . . well for the answer to that, you will have to tune in tomorrow folks!
Speaking of hearts . . . my heart and thoughts go out to Kat tonight too as she faces an extremely tough day tomorrow. Sending lots of big hugs your way Kat. You are in my heart and my thoughts :)
Apologies also if I didn't get to your stream today . . . it's 12.28am as I write this so will catch up tomorrow and over the weekend :)
