Happy Macro Mondays to all flickr friends, HMM !
p.s. captured from a little magnetic travel-chess-game, height of the king approx. 2cm
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Goin' nowhere, goin' nowhere
Their tears are fillin' up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dyin'
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad world, mad world

Crystal highball glass tumbler photographed from the bottom side. Created for the Macro Mondays theme "Bottoms Up"
For the Macro Mondays challenge "Bottoms Up" (July 10th 2017)
The base of these lovely little liqueur glasses is just 2" across. I love looking at the bottom of glass, to see if there is a pontil mark that shows it is hand-blown glass. These aren't hand-blown, but they are a lovely twisting shape. I had to shoot them 3 times! The first shoot I found the glass was dusty and there were tiny dust marks all over. I had to throw the shots away. I carefully washed and dried them. This time there were tiny bits of lint from the towel over the glass. Another lot of shots into the bin! The 3rd time I washed the glasses, rinsed them off, and left the water drops on them .... a cowardly solution perhaps ... but at least the glass looks clean now ;o)

The 1/4" (6.35mm)-high sensor on the bottom of a Canon X Mark 1 M Bluetooth mouse/calculator.
I rarely use its calculator function; as a mouse, it's precise and reliable.
One of the few things I have from my beloved grandmother is her red cut-crystal glass vase. When I turned it upside down, it caught the light and seemed like a star on fire. It made me wonder which circle it would be in Dante's Inferno. And yet, it is beautiful and hopeful, so maybe it is on the journey to Paradiso. It also looks like a compass looking for true north.
Macro Mondays theme: Bottoms Up - looking at the sun through the underside of the leaf of a house plant. HMM...
Actually, it is my grandson's toy Bugatti Atlantic from 1936. We bought it for him at The Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. It is actually a nice little replica -- this is its bottom with the detail of the transaxle. Hope you enjoy -- HMM!
Macro Mondays: Theme: Bottoms Up. 10-07-2017.
Rose Chafer (Cetonia aurata)
This lovely coloured rose chafer beetle was displaying it's wonderful bottom as it climbed over this white Hebe shrub.
These wonderfully metallic green beetles are new to my garden this year, I think they look nice on the flowers sipping nectar and nibbling pollen etc.
Amazing what flies into your garden sometimes, nature is marvellous! beetles the armoured tank's of the insect world.
HMM everyone!

This image was produced for the Macro Mondays theme of Bottoms Up. It is an image of the underside of a gas burner from a domestic cooker. Even though it is not attached to the cooker the gas burner is still burning with the characteristic natural gas blue flame. Taken with Fuji XT2 fitted with a Samsung 100mm f2.8 macro lens. Elinchrom studio lighting.

I was at a total loss as to what my subject was going to be until this morning. After setting up and deciding I required the assistance of my flashgun I poured Port into a shotglass and discovered that the flash would keep up with the camera in continuous shooting mode.
The blue in the picture is actually the sky outside the window being refracted in the glass. I quite liked it so didn't block it out.
