Grandpa's old compass

Don't know how many times I used one of these at school, or had one jabbed in my thumb :)

i was inspired from a banner in front of the aquarium Berlin, when i spent one hour to watch the yellyfishes + the water was not so clear, full of particles + so it looks like a starry sky + here i start with my new album: Jellyfish in space

J'ai retrouvé ce Compas dans les affaires laissées par mon père. Je le garde précieusement et le range parmi mes objets de collection. #Macro #MacroMondays #Father

It was back to reality today, a bit of a frustrating Monday but I think I got the annoying bits of the work week dealt with today so the rest of the week should be a little better.

Otherwise, it's been a pretty dull day. Gray and chilly. I don't know where the warmer weather went, but hopefully it needs to come back soon!

Hope everyone has had a good day.

Wildflower, Compass Plant growing along the prairie trail in Hixon Forest, La Crosse, WI

A classic, almost prehistoric-looking prairie wildflower. The tallest one in the middle was around eight feet tall, or about 2.4 meters. Thompson Prairie, where this photo was taken, was filled with them, making for an interesting sight.
