Instead of spending money you can also decide to fold with it and that's what I did ;-) A little goodby-present for a colleague, who is leaving to start a new job.

If you want to try origami money-folding, you can find several models on youtube. Have fun!

Macro Mondays: Crinkled wrinkled folded creased

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !

Today is an orange day at Color my World Daily and we have Mr. Teddy Bear with us to celebrate Happy Teddy bear Tuesdays. And the theme at Crazy Tuesday is Folded or Creased Paper.

 

This is a perfect day for Mr. Teddy Bear to daydream about sailing on his blue paper boat. Mr. Teddy Bear has a passion for sailing and a passion for boats. So that is why he has so many paper boats ! Once he starts to fold the paper he can’t stop and he has to make several boats of the same color. And then he makes one extra just in case ! That is why Mr. Teddy Bear has more and more paper boats in his house. He can hardly wait to be able to take his boats outside and go on a romantic get away with Princess… Spring is definitely here so it will not be long until sailing is enjoyable again !

 

Meanwhile, I have to « sail » in a general direction of my living room office !See you later my friends !! And have a beautiful day !

 

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!

The completed assembly of 'Yin or Yang' makes a friendly smiling origami modular called "Electra 30" or 'Electra".

It has the structure of an 'origami Icosidodecahedron', that is the underlying structure of 'Electra': every five-sided ring is surrounded by three-sided rings and every three-sided ring by five-sided rings.

 

This 30-piece version of 'Electra' is probably the best known and most folded modular, designed by David Mitchell.

On his website you will find the diagrams for the improved module to hold them together more firmly, especially during the assembly phase.

The original module is now only used for the 24-piece design.

 

Model: origami Electra 30, better known as Electra

Design: David Mitchell

Diagrams on his website

 

Paper: 30 pieces of floral harmony paper, 5x5cm

Final size: diameter 7,5cm

A few times a year I have a mini-origami-meeting with a friend, who also love to fold ;-)). Today is such a day. We each select some models to fold and this time I choose this abstract origami model, called "A trapped love", where a cube is surrounded by a thick "line".

When assembling this model you put in the cube halfway, because once the "line" is finished, you can't put the cube in. And when it is "trapped" inside, you can't take the cube out without destroying this "line".

 

I put the model on a mirror, so I hope you see the "line" better ;-)

 

It's an idea by Hans -Werner Guth and he was inspired by the origami "Umulius Rectangulum" by Thoki Yenn.

Another one from the visit to the metal sculpture's place. I printed some images for my friend and when I looked at this one I asked myself "is this from the beach somewhere?" Until I realized it was the wrong way round. I took this in portrait mode but decided I like it better landscape.

This is polished metal and I liked the pale blue shades.

Small waves are great for presenting a ripple fold contrasting abstract aided by reflections from the sun..

MacroMondays#Crinkled, Wrinkled, Folded or Creased

Have a nice day and thank you for visiting.

HMM!

Last Sunday we finally had a bright day after weeks of rain and heavy skies. I took a walk along the cliffs at Bempton normally when I am there in early summer the cliffs are packed tight with seabirds but they have not arrived yet, so there was stillness in the air, which was most unusual

 

I rather like the way the land near the cliff edge very gently undulates the low sun probably added to the effect anyway this shot is SOOC

 

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FOR TAKING THE TIME TO WRITE A COMMENT IT’S MUCH APPRECIATED.

Macro-Mondays-High Key

 

I used the High Key setting in my camera for this shot.

 

The Upstate, NY area is covered in these lovely white asters. As the petals age, they fold under and fall off. Then the center, where the seeds are, dries and turns a deep brown shade. Birds will feed on the seeds in the winter.
