These attributes are forming the face of Redbeard. He even wears a hat with bones.I'm starting to see things....

I had seen some paperclips earlier in the week and thought, perfect. Well I could not find them tonight and found this while looking for the clips....lol

Why get stressed.... change of plan.

Happy Smile on Saturday

You get what it says on the package :)

"E", for Elastic Band, for Escribano...

Elastic Bands and paperclips.

A shot of my tin of bands, with added paperclips to provide a contrast :)

For the Smile on Saturday group's Entangled theme :)

Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image! Happy Smile on Saturday :)

The rubber band was patented in England on March 17, 1845, by Stephen Perry, inventor and businessman. I think he stretched himself with this invention :~

Macro Mondays, July 3, Relaxation,

3 x 3"

For Macro Monday's "Relaxation" theme. A really tough one ;-) Three short rubber bands in the moment of transition from being taut to returning to their relaxed state. I'm not really happy with this, and it is the third capture in a row for MMs that involves motion blur, but was even less happy with my other two ideas / shots, so here it is. Width: between 1,37795 and 1,77165 inches (3,5 - 4,5 cm)

Thank you for your kind comments, I appreciate every single one (and I'll try to answer them, certainly with a fav), and your faves ;-) ! Today I'm very busy, so won't be able to be on Flickr much, I'll try to catch up later.

A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone!

Für das Macro-Monday-Thema "Relexation". Das dritte MM-Foto in Folge mit Bewegungsunschärfe, drei sehr kurze Gummibänder, im Moment des Loslassens und der Rückkehr in den entspannten Zustand. Ich bin nicht richtig zufrieden damit, aber meine beiden anderen Ideen / Fotos haben mir noch weniger gefallen...

Vielen Dank für Eure tollen Kommentare und Faves und einen schönen Montag, genießt die seltene Sonne, so es geht ;-)

Rubber bands.

Elastic Bands.

This is for Macro Mondays, the Vowel theme.

A very quick, desperate, last-minute attempt lol. It's about an inch across (the image not the attempt!).

Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image! Happy Macro Mondays :)

Have a "Happy Macro Monday"

and a good start into the new week.

Stay safe/Bleibt gesund! 🌸

Many thanks for all your views, faves and comments.

The moon is the largest rubber band ball in the universe.

Mars would be the biggest, but a lot of the bands broke, which is how the canals were made.

I thought of this shot while seeing the Physical Therapist last week. He wanted me to use a rubber band in my home exercises, but each one he took from his desk, snapped the minute he stretched it. Time for fresh rubber bands, lol.

It's all good and well to be stretched to the limit in our world of rubber bands, but every once in a while relaxation rules the macromonday

It is ball totally made winding colourful Rubber Bands one over the other during my free time in the Weekend. Perfectly bounces like a tennis Ball :-)

random newspaper words cut out

typewriter is part of an etching (work in progress!)

the book is about ancient Chinese writing- no idea what it says.

I have been seeing a lot of commercials about ice balls. Ice balls are better because they have less surface area than cubes and melt slower. I found a kitchen hack on how to make ice ball. You cut a tennis ball part way through, put a water balloon in the tennis ball and fill it with water, tie off the balloon and wrap elastic bands around the ball. Place the tennis ball in the freezer and wait.

It does work but I don't think it's worth the trouble. An ice ball mold is between $10,00 - $20.00.

Art from those red elastic bands that postmen leave everywhere.

People complain, but there are a zillion uses for elastic bands found on streets.... perfect freecycling

A bunch of rubber bands relaxing

listening to the radio i heard a song by Stephen Marley and Ben Harper. The chorus sounded like.... "if a egg, natty inna di red" . ....Turns out that IS the chorus.

A last minute shot for MacroMondays has been limited to what is on my office desk at home. Maybe a little bit abstract, a biro with an elastic band, sitting in a pencil pot.

I need to start thinking more about MM, I usually check the topic earlier in the week then completely forget until about this time on a Monday!! HMM

Here is my thirteenth build for my new Iron builder Round against David Hensel (Legonardo Davidy)

The special part is that hairbrush spike

Well the hairbrush had to be done unfortunately I don't have enough of the special part to build a nice big scale one.

And yes we've seen lots of Lego hairbrush already.

So I decided to give it a cheezy funny twist :P

15th April 2022 :

The little things on my watchstrap that catch the main strap broke ages ago. I found an elastic band and used that for ages. It however broke the other day.

I'd put elastic bands on the shopping list, but they got forgotten, so a trip to the local supermarket was made to get some.

What I really want to know is, why do they measure them in grams?

Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites.

To make the straps of the shoe more beautiful

I used the black balloon.

a quirky little book called 'The Silent Traveller in the Yorkshire Dales'.....a Chinese view of Yorkshire during world war II

Not the most inspiring shot but it fits the bill of texture for the weekly theme. I feel that I am in a "lame photo dip" at the moment so apologies for that!

"Macro Monday" RELAXED (Explore #364)

My postman often leans his bike on the lamp post outside my neighbour's house when he walks round the road.

Here it’s not about color at all — just the pattern of the background and the curved lines of the hair ties picking up bright highlights. Everyday cosmetics turned into black and white geometry.
