... this is my favorite macro because it is the eye of my dog I had to let go not too long ago ... it's an unusual focus, but lets you look right into his soul ... he was a difficult dog, we were his third owners but I refused to give up on him, he lived with us for 10 years and I really miss him ...
macro mondays ... eye ...

I love skyward shots when the sky is blue, clear and sunny! Even when I give myself a blind spot for the next ten minutes. This was when the blossom was being ornately beautiful to the point of being superfluous and I loved it so here we are. As you can probably see from my previous shots, I love catching the Sun, it's the additional co-star of many of my works and I love playing with the effects and challenging the camera's software to translate it, often it's quite exciting to see how it turns out.
I hope everyone's week is off to a good start so far and so as always, thank you! :)

A few months back I was watching the white hawk through my bins, when I heard the distinctive toots of a Pygmy Owl. Sure enough, a pair was in the oak trees behind me.
A description here not really necessary
A beautiful owl., with a beautiful face... description over
Except to thank him of course for an absurdly close flyby!
Do you remember my photo 'A work in progress' ?
Well, I finally finished the basic pattern. It is a very large extension of this origami-tessellation, called 'Start'.
It is the first time I ever folded such a large grid!
Now the fun part begins, adding the final pattern by altering the magical hexagons ;-))
Folded from a hexagon 43cm, grid 1:128, 'Anett'-paper.
If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album Origami - Tessellation Progression".

I always pass this pump station at Elan in mid Wales and think tilt-shift would work, finally the miniature version is here!!!
Heres some history;
www.tourwicklow.ie/portfolio-items/military-road/
www.glendalough.connect.ie/pages/articles/militaryroad/mi...
Thomas Weaver, an English engineer, discovered lead ore while building this road which " lead" to major mining in this area. Its nice to think that something good came out of this dreadful period in history.
The road was build in 1798 by the English army to try and capture the rebels that were hiding in the Wicklow mountains. It was a way to quickly bring troops from Rathfarnam, Co. Dublin to any trouble spots. It was quite successful but Michael Dwyer and Gen Joseph Holt hid out in the mountans for 5 years before giving themselves up. Dwyer hid in a cave in Glenmalure which I found last year having searched off and on for 4 years.
They both were given free passage to Australia. Dwyer became the sherrif of New South Wales and died there where as after many adventures, Holt got back to Ireland.
The road is still there and in use every day with innumerable little bridges that are still intact which is a testament to the men who built it all those years ago. A truly awe inspiring place and Im so lucky to live so close to it.

Christmas is a season not only of rejoicing but of reflection.
(Winston Churchill)
So remember while December
Brings the only Christmas Day
In the year let there be Christmas
In the things we do and say
Wouldn't life be worth the living
Wouldn't dreams be coming true
If we kept the Christmas spirit
All the whole year through.

29:52 - Make a portrait where the primary goal is to engineer intimacy from a situation that is fundamentally artificial.
In Cape Scott Provincial Park, where we recently went, one of the trails is the North Coast Trail - 60km (37 miles) long. The hikers feel connected through the fact that they are in it together, and have a common goal. When they have completed the hike, they nail or somehow attach whatever they wore on their feet onto this Shoe Tree. Looking at this tree covered with old and battered shoes, and even a prosthetic leg, seemed so intimate to me. If the people who wore them hadn't all hiked the same trail and endured the same hardships, these would just be meaningless shoes.
Last week I posted this privately to a 52 week theme group, so apologize to those of you who have already seen it and commented.
