It has come to my personal attention that my own contribution may not be up to my standards in building, so I would like all of you to make a simple choice for me. Should I keep it how it is, or build something a bit more Apoc?
Please give your opinion.
My contribution to Macro Mondays' challenge, "Pouch", on 14 Sep 2020. It's a well-used HP financial calculator, a relic from my pre-retirement past.
Today’s contribution to my 365 was inspired (or uninspired ?) by the fact that I’ve spent a lot of time this morning taking phonecalls from hospital depts . rescheduling and relocating future appointments due to the resurgence of Covid in Wales. Read more here :-
This is my contribution to the Smile on Saturday Group. The theme is: smile. There is nothing better than a smile. So I used my skinniest finger to fit a Santa Hat on it and to give you this beautiful Christmas Smile ! I hope you like it !!
Note to myself: It is super hard to take a picture of your own hand… ;-).
And since we are Saturday it is a pink day in Color my World Daily Group, that explains my pink background.
Note to myself #2: pink goes very well with red ! Who knew ??
HSoS and HCMWD to all participants!
Thank you so much for your comments /favs and support! I’m humbled and grateful!!! I wish you all an amazing day and see you soon on Flickr!! #smile

My contribution to the Macro Mondays challenge, "Junk", on 23 September 2019. It's a very old tin brooch containing a posy of wildflowers. It was given to my mother, or possibly my grandmother, when she was a child. Definitely junk, albeit of the sentimental kind.
Hello amazing Flickr people!
This is my contribution to 2 awesome Flickr Groups:
*ღღ* Cosas de casa *ღღ and the theme for today is “bottle” and Color my World Daily with the color Yellow for today. So happy yellow bottle day to everyone!!!
Every summer, since almost 10 years, we spend 2 weeks in Cuba. We absolutely love it and it is truly a family tradition. We go with my parents, my sister and my children, husband and me.
Each year we throw a message in a bottle into the ocean… (yes, I know this is pollution, but it has such a symbolic meaning to us, and I always take the smallest bottle possible and made of glass...please don’t judge me !!!!).
My sons are writing the message to the world hoping someone will answer… My Dad tests different bottles to see which one will float the best and further… and since we usually go to the same hotel, employees are aware of our strange occupation and they participate actively (by keeping the empty bottles for my Dad to test or provide some beautiful paper to write the message, etc.).
The message and the bottle keep us very occupied! At the end of our stay we go on the catamaran tour and throw a bottle further away from the coast…
And then the waiting begins… and the speculation… The bottle has no boundaries…. It can go soooooo far…
Of course my Dad wants it to go to New Zealand (maybe my friend Ian (www.flickr.com/photos/nzpix) will find it one day !!)…
My Mom thinks it will float to Vancouver (France (www.flickr.com/photos/abeillerose) maybe you will find it ??). My youngest wants someone from Africa to find a message, and my other son thinks it will float forever.
My husband thinks another tourist from Montreal will find the bottle…. Let me tell you: this messages in the bottles are a constant subject of conversations at our house until the next summer!
Well, to this day, after 8 bottles thrown in the sea, we got one answer! And it was a surprise. Our message was on the plane with us, on our way back home. Another family from Canada found the bottle and they knew who the author of the message was… so they decided to wait 6 months before writing a letter to my sons (just to make a bigger surprise)! No need to say that my boys were super thrilled, and everyone was surprised! We stayed in touch with our new friends and we had a good laugh about the whole story. And my husband was right (for once ;-)) another tourist found the message. But no one predicted that the message will be coming back with us on the same plane! That is the beauty of the message in the bottle: you can never predict where it will go...
This time, just to make sure everything is in order, I’m sending Yellow Lady with the message. She can survive, don’t you worry… she has food, wine and an oxygen tank in her purse! and also a compass (of course) and some old fashion maps (since I’m a cartographer, maps always have a sentimental value for me...).
Bon voyage Yellow Lady!!! Be safe wherever you go!!
Thank you so much for your comments /favs and support! I’m humbled and grateful!!! I wish you all an amazing day and see you soon on Flickr (how about tomorrow ??)!!

My contribution for this week's theme "photo", for the Swedish photo group Fotosondag.
Första helgen i mars som vi tillbringade i stugan i Västernäs. Inte så mycket vår i sikte. Mest grått. Tur att vi har ett par röda båtbojer som skänker lite färg åt bilden. :)
Macro Mondays Contribution "Brands"
(A.Schacht M-Travenar R 1:2,8/50mm)
Electron tubes branded "Tesla" have been produced in socialist Czechoslovakia since 1946.
Since 2010 the still existing firm shares the name "Tesla" with the U.S. car manufacturer.
My contribution for this week's theme "dreams", for the Swedish photo group Fotosondag.
Well, för att få ens drömmar att gå i uppfyllelse ber många om lite hjälp från di högre makterna. Om det funkar eller inte, har jag dock ingen större erfarenhet av.
Falchion is my contribution to the CIRCorp round of the Starfighter Telephone Game. It follows (the superb) Backblast from uspez, and now completes the full circle back to halfbeak.
I also made a high-speed construction video here on Flickr or here on YouTube, and a build walkthrough video with commentary at youtu.be/l8j_Tbu-EF4.
Lastly, overall shaping/balance in the rear section (addition of upper tail and length of engine section) benefited hugely from some advice from Rob. Thanks again!
My contribution for this week's theme "spring feelings", for the Swedish photo group Fotosondag.
"Var är våren?!" Det var vad skrattmåsen tycktes undra. Och det gjorde nog vi andra också. Men den kommer, var så säker. Tids nog. Och då får vi leva ut alla vårkänslor vi samlat på oss under vinterveckorna.

My contribution to this weeks theme, still life (with a touch of Halloween), for the photo group Fotosöndag.
Några snäckor från årets Thailandsresa och ett par ljus på ett klassiskt tennfat från Jämtland. Svårare ska det ju inte vara att ta en bild på temat "stilleben". Om det inte var för att det skulle göras på Alla helgons-helgen som till råga på allt inföll på samma dag som Halloween. Inte konstigt att det for omkring en massa konstigt i luften vid plåtningen. Ja, även dagen efter själva begifvenheten. De hade en himlans kul helg de där illbattingarna.
My contribution to the Macro Mondays' challenge, "chain", on 9 December 2019. It's a 19th Century watch chain (also known as an Albert chain) decorated with a gold sovereign from the reign of George II.

This was my contribution to this year's Eurobricks collaborative layout at Brickworld Chicago, named Ready, Set, Escargot.
The concept to have a snail race with castles on top fighting each other. The snail was designed by Mark Larson, and then we all built our own snail and a castle on top.
My castle is inspired by Japanese castles, and its name means "snail castle" in Japanese. The castle is obviously defended by ninjas, some of which are going on the assault on elemental dragons. The snail is being baited with sushi. The castle also comes equipped with relaxation facilities, such as a zen garden and a hot bath.
This is my contribution to the Sliders Sunday Group. As you can see, my crystal ball photography is still at the exploration stage. Holidays are over... this is my last day befor going back to work...My pants barely fit... Crap. Have a great day my Flickr friends !! You are my positive energy !! Thank you so much for your comments /favs and support! I’m humbled and grateful!!! I wish you all an amazing day and see you soon on Flickr!!
This was one of my contributions to the Isles of Aura InnovaLUG layout at Brickworld this year. While trying to come up with ideas for how to make an island that was a little different than just your average floating rock, a flash of inspiration hit. Why not make a shipwreck island? I mean, with all these rocks and boats just floating around in the sky, it seems like the odds are pretty high that it would happen eventually. So now I had a good idea! But having an idea and building it are two different matters. I wanted the ship to have split the island, so that each side was at an angle. To achieve this, I made an extremely solid technic frame, and then built out from there. I’ll be doing a build log for this in the near future, so I won’t spoil all the details, but let’s just say it was quite a challenge at times. The buildings here were extremely fun to build however! I pretty much just tried to see how many balconies I could fit on one building with the taller one. Got to put some our MDF tiles to use too. Anyways, thanks for looking, and I hope you enjoy the build – as always, C&C is very welcome!
Lots more pictures on Brickbuilt!

This is my contribution to Macro Mondays' theme "Wings".
Wikipedia explains (cf. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wingnut_(hardware)):
"A wingnut, wing nut or butterfly nut is a type of nut with two large metal 'wings', one on each side, so it can be easily tightened and loosened by hand without tools."
The photograph shows two 3/8"-16 UNC wingnuts, mounted to threaded rods. The thread-type is one of the - I assume - two standard-thread-types for photo- and filmography equipment.
Image-dimensions (circa): 37mm x 60mm (approximately the golden cut, though the composition does not really fit it).
I used darktable, gimp and zerene to pp this. The photo was taken with the Nikon AF Micro 60 mm f/2.8 together with an extension tube on a Nikon D850 mounted to a WeMacro rail.
PS: For German photographers bestimmt 'ne geile Seite: www.fotoschraubenshop.de/info/ ... bei denen hab ich die Gewindestangen und Muttis auch gekauft.
Crazy Tuesday contribution "Favorite Song"
"Waldeinsamkeit" is a beautiful german poem by Joseph von Eichendorff (1788-1857). The composer Max Reger (1873-1916) created a song ("kunstlied") based on this poem:
This is my contribution to the New Hashima collab that was displayed at this year's BrickingBavaria.
The cyberpunk inspired island was my biggest project yet and I really enjoyed being part of such a big project. A big thank you to Simon & Jan for making it all possible!
You can currently see a part of the layout for some time in the Brickstory Museum, where you can also find my island!
It's International Lego Classicist Day 2021 and this is my contribution for this year!
Ramses II. on his war chariot at the Battle of Kadesh, accompanied by archer and cheetah. The depiction of the scene is a blend between two motives.
The stylistic approach tries to recreate this image of Ramses, with hieroglyphs, cheetah and archer. While the position of the horses - to be more visible - is taken from a second image. The hieroglyphs between Ramses and the horses were spared out for artistic reasons, to have a cleaner look.
.jpg){kind=link}
More images and details of the war chariot will follow the next days.
Happy ILCD 2021! 😊

My piece is a six-layered print, my third such experiment using the Print Gocco. Unfortunately, this particular time the Gocco inks printed a bit dark for my liking, so I had to lighten them up a tad in Photoshop. I guess with Gocco, you never really know how they're gonna turn out until you finish printing the last separation. I think from now on I should stick to prints under three or four colors until I master this new (to me) technology. I'd love to know if anybody's tried using other types of inks aside from Riso (such as Versatex) and what where their results. I find that the Gocco inks are a bit expensive (for the amount of ink you get) and difficult to mix to create the exact color and opacity I'm looking for.

This is my contribution to the Rogue Bricks collab 'Rogue Francisco', which was displayed at Bricking Bavaria 2025 as well as Phaeno Bricks 2026 in Wolfsburg as part of a smaller layout. Typical for San Francisco's district Haight-Ashbury in the 1960s are the colorful houses, vibrant social life, and the visible Hippy Community.
Also, this time I experimented a little with including lights in this build. The fancy cars on the streets were designed by Gerrit (gGh0st) and are held together by sheer willpower.
I hope you like it!

My contribution to Macro Mondays (2019-11-18) on the theme "Lids".
This is every parent's nightmare (ok, maybe just mine!): badly closed modeling clay left to dry.
My contribution for the #newhashima collab at Brickworld last month!
I was so thrilled when I got the opportunity to build for the collab! I knew with Simon and Stefan leading the charge, the project would be legendary.
My cubes included a pachinko parlor, garage, boba stand, karaoke bar, and an apartment complex.
My contribution to Fotosöndag/Photo Sunday on the theme Hund/Dog. In swedish the white small flowers contains the word for dog.
every day boys like this fellow come to the beach with their horses for giving beach visitors a brief horse ride along the water front for Rs 20/- (say 30 cents). The good old friends - the beach and horses are helping these poor kids to help their parents to raise them and run their kitchen. Thats Nature's contribution to the man kind!

My contribution for this week's theme "nature"; for the Swedish photo group Fotosondag.
Well, även gråsparvar i en förortshäck hör ju liksom till naturen. Kanske inte den där avkopplande, friska naturen man är ute i för att reflektion och återhämtning. Men när inget annat finns tillgängligt än en handfull gråsparvar som näbbas i en nyponbuske, får det funka som temabild också.
Since in these days I've no time, today I propose an old photo already published but is for donation.
