Why do tulips almost never look poorly? No one tries to administer Botox, at least not that I know.
In January 2022 I asked for help, and a Flickr support hero removed both of my accounts from the Explore algorithm. I feel more relaxed and sincere.
Thank you all who fave and comment on my photo'/video's,much appreciated.And thank you all for looking.

For all the joy Thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.
You're born, raised and then torn down,
To look a little more like, Everyone you meet,
And everyday that goes by,
You look a little less like who you used to be...
Such an elephant face seems to be as old as the time ..

When teaching young elementary aged children (and supplying them with small magnifying glasses), some of my students examined my hand. One little girl was closely studying my face and remarked, "You have wrinkles!" Smiling at the group of surprised faces, I remarked, "Yes, those are sminkles that I have from smiling!"
Discovering these pressed pansies that had been forgotten in a closet, I wanted to study their captured beauty. Seeing the image again, I was reminded that folds on our skin are no big deal. They are pretty on a pansy, too.
This is a special eating apple, in that it is organic and grown by me! It is past its best now but has retained its vibrant colour. Not for the compost heap yet. Photographed with the iPhone, then image cropped.

Another shot from my night still life session. Here you can see the wrinkles on the face of my great-grandmother's clock from 1915. In my earlier shot 'Reminisce', the candle light blew out the details. Also included is a 1930s encyclopedia from my Grandma's attic.
For the Macro Mondays theme: Wrinkled.
You see a detail of the 'Wrinkle-Crinkle Hat", backlit. In the first comment box you can see the whole 'Hat', twice actually. First I took a backlit shot today of the whole hat and you see a photo in normal light, which I made 12 years ago….. I'm getting old ;-))
For the crumpling technique you use very very fine kraft paper. It's a bit magical, a few folds, you moisten, you wrinkle and crinkle. Keep repeating this several time until you are satisfied with the amount of wrinkles. Then you fold/shape it and dry your creation with a hair dryer and the paper keeps its folds.
While you might argue whether it's still origami or not, it is definitely an interesting technique.
The more I look at this detailed wrinkles the more I see, like a dragon, an owl, a gnome……..Can you see them too?
Anyway Happy Macro Monday ;-))
I was fascinated by the leaves of this rosa rugosa (which is from the latin for wrinkled). They look nothing like typical rose leaves. Found at the Savannah Botanical Gardens.
Thanks for looking.
Tea rose of the Charles de Gaulle variety sometimes unravels like an unpressed shirt but is still among my favourites because of its prolific layers, delightful colour and distinctive scent.
2022 has been a year of many ups and downs, similar to the numerous wrinkles on these unusual-looking tomatoes I saw in Mallorca, Spain. Hopefully 2023 will be less turbulent. Best wishes to you all for a happy New Year. Thanks for stopping by to look at my images.
