Flatlay interpretation!

Es tut mir leid, dass ich im Moment so selten hier bin.

Crazy Tuesday - Knolling

Tarnished Spice Girls

I took a little time this morning to play with the set up and processing for the artichokes. There is so much more I could do but for this is what we have for today.

I have received SO many bouquets since Dad passed that I'm running out of places to put them, but I have cherished each and every one as they've arrived. Each bouquet has a variety of different flowers.

I bought some fresh tulips today while I was at the store getting a couple of things for tonight's supper. It is hard to choose which colour to buy and if I was rich I'd buy them all! Haha! I decided on these red tulips as I usually don't see this colour variety. I also thought they would go well with the hearts since Valentine's Day is around the corner. ❤️

Thanks for your visit! I hope you had a great day!

A colorful and tasty dessert created from seasonal fruits. Classic picnic tablecloth background. Family get together tradition.

apples!

Today I baked some oatmeal muffins to have for snacks for the busy week ahead.

I hope everyone had a great Sunday! Thanks for your visit!

A natural flat lay :))))

A flatlay with one of my orange minis. I have been looking for the colouring book on my bookshelves for a while and rediscovered it today (yes I have far too many books when a book this size can get 'lost') and it was a good opportunity to do another hoop flatlay.

I found an ancient copy of Practical Photography magazine - remember it? It's not published any more unfortunately. A feature on still life ideas caught my eye, so I've spent a couple of weeks searching for a suitable pencil sharpener. Not easy in lockdown but a neighbour found one. So after an evening of fiddling and adjusting minute details, hey presto, a zip. #37 Flat lay for the group challenge 121 pictures in 2021

Developed with Darktable 3.6.0.

I like things in order...but my silverware drawer never stays this way for long because.....well, because I don't live alone. 😉

This is a flat-lay standing up. My grandson set the animals people and other props up.

Flat lay may be my new thing :)

A selection of wild and garden spring flowers and leaves on a verdigris copper background.

Haha, unknowingly, I seem to come up with a menu.

I'm currently suffering from my 20-hr binge watch last weekend. I should not have ignored responsibility when it came crying in the background.

"Falling" apart! (See what I did there?

Have joined a group that "Practices Random Acts of Kindness and Senseless Beauty". It's a rock painting group and we get together paint rocks, and put them in public places for people to find.

Beef - it's what's for dinner

I listened to a podcast on Instgram by Deanne Love this morning and then got carried away with a photo challenge set by Deanne.

'Grab your fav hoop, put on some cool tunes, then GO! Collect as many things in your house that match your hoop 😊 Make some circle art, take a flat lay pic and share it

It has really taken off on Instagram myfavhoop with many people (including me) doing it with more than one hoop.

A little bit of fun during lockdown. I enjoyed myself doing these flatlays and this is probably my favourite - so I'm using it for:

120 pictures in 2020 (97) simple pleasures

Colourful buttons shot on a light pad and then repeated and distorted in Photoshop to create this bit of fun 'art'

CC Week 46 - Flat Lay and Knolling

My dog volunteered to help me out with this shot.

Im Nachlass meiner Eltern habe ich diese Beweise für Ihre Sparsamkeit gefunden. Stifte wurden solange genutzt, bis man sie nicht mehr anspitzen konnte ...

Und es ging nicht nur um das Sparen. Wir wurden zur Achtsamkeit der Umwelt gegenüber erzogen. Papier wurde gespart, um die Bäume zu verschonen und die Umweltbelastung durch die Papierherstellung zu minimieren. Wir erfuhren, wie viele Bäume für Hefte und Bücher sterben mussten und wie schädlich die Papierindustrie für die Umwelt ist. Ein beeindruckender Film über die umstrittene Zellulosefabrik am Baikalsee war Pflichtprogramm von der Schule aus.

So nutzten wir selbst die Bons aus Registrierkassen (damals noch aus richtigem Papier) als Notizzettel. Die Rückseite war ja nicht bedruckt.

Jedes Brettchen und Leistchen wurden aufgehoben, weil man es ja vielleicht noch gebrauchen konnte.

Die viel zitierte "Mangelwirtschaft" in der DDR hatte auch so sein Gutes. An Neues war schwer ranzukommen. So glitt man von der "schlechten Zeit" nach dem Krieg nicht in eine fette "Wirtschaftswunderphase", sondern kultivierte die Nutzung vorhandener Ressourcen. Upcycling war selbstverständlich. Nur hieß es damals "aus Alt, mach Neu" ...

Auch Recycling wurde groß geschrieben. Das hieß dann "Sekundärrohstoffgewinnung" - kurz SERO. Einmal im Monat zogen die Schulklassen mit Handwagen los und klingelten an jede Tür, um Altpapier, Glas und Schrott einzusammeln. Die Leute kannten die Termine und sammelten bis dahin alles, was anfiel. Die Schüler brachten diese Schätze dann zum Altstoffhandel bzw. zur "Sekundärrohstofferfassungsstelle". Der Erlös landete in der Klassenkasse. Davon wurden Wandertage oder sogar Klassenfahrten finanziert.

Another wet, cold and dreary day. It might not feel like it's Spring so I had to get a little creative to make it feel like it is. ☀️🌷

Day 100 of this 365 already?! :)

Thanks for your visit! I hope you had a wonderful day!
