This is just a phone shot from the plane, leaving George airport in the Western Cape. It never ceases to amaze me how many mountain ranges are in South Africa which are hardly ever named. They are thousands of metres high. This range is a fold range and yet at the very top is this crater-like depression. Everything is very dry here and yet there was snow.
For the Macro Mondays challenge "Crinkled Wrinkled Folded or Creased" (October 22nd 2018)
This is the inside face of a silver wrist cuff. Called a 'Crinkle Cuff Bracelet' it is made of a single sheet of silver which is held upright, and then pressure is applied until the metal starts to fold and bend. It is made to look like crinkled or wrinkled cloth on the outer side, and as smooth folded cloth on the inner side (comfortable and smooth close to the skin). There is a photo of the full cuff in the first comment field - the entire cuff is 3" across, and this is a small portion of it, about 1.5 inches.
Happy Macro Monday! ;o)

For Macro Mondays: Paper theme
This was created using a 4" square of paper folded into fourths-- so the thin paper edge is 2" top to bottom--within the parameters set for Macro Mondays.
I started my project using a 6" square folded into fourths, but found it didn't allow me to shoot the image within the 3" boundary. I then cut and folded a 5" square which gave me 2.5"and it was still too large. Finally, a 4" square allowed me to get the image I wanted within the limitations of the group.
I was really loving the various images and sizes of the folded squares, so I stacked them and created some pretty cool "sculptures" one of which is in my Photostream.
Had a difficult time deciding which photo to post to the group out of over a hundred shots, so if you want to see more, there are few I've made public.
This is a stretchy headband....my husband said it looks like a fun place to go 4 wheeling. :)
Happy new week, friends!
Macro Mondays - Cloth
This week we had to photograph cloth.
I chose one of my Mum's head scarves. Her favourite colour was green and this brought back lots of memories of her … I had to iron this first and there were little bits of her make-up still on the scarf, and yet it must have been many years since she wore it.
I have a habit of folding any piece of paper or carton.
And I'm sorry, I didn't have much time to think about
MacroMondays this week either, but I wanted to participate...
So, I shot one tiny carton box for soft fruit candy folded by me and lighted by two flashlights from front and back. The colourful side is under and the colors just shows up because of the light in the back.
I am currently up north jamming at my friends chalet. Posting is always tougher on my little net book because it is slow. This is the back door of the Queen's Tavern in Ayr ON where the Dirty Laundry band played recently.
As I was driving out of the Painted Hills Unit in the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument that early evening, the alternating shadows and light in those undulating hills of red-maroon / yellow-olive green brought to mind folded layers of velvet fabric. Those two trees in the sunlight help add a little bit of scale and reference to the scene.

A grey and drizzly day here - this is based on the wonderful folds in the trunk of a beech tree I pass when walking through a local graveyard
Különös szállítmány érkezik az Örs vezér terére, mégpedig a Milleniumi Földalatti Vasút egyik szerelvénye, 2 "Muki" tehervillamos (7039, 7040) közrefogásával. A földalatti, avagy 1-es metró szerelvényeinek bizonyos karbantartásait az Örs vezér terén lévő Vasúti Járműjavítóban végzik, e célból változó gyakorisággal szoktak a villamoshálózaton szállítani szerelvényeket, jellemzően késő délelőtt, vagy az éj leple alatt. A tehervillamosok a BSzKRt idején épültek, a múlt század '20-as évei óta képezik részét a városi vasútnak, ugyan szerepük és darabszámuk mára már minimális, de egykoron egész nagy forgalmat bonyolítottak, számos üzem iparvágánya kapcsolódott a villamoshálózatba, melyet kiszolgáltak. A II. világháború környékén pedig a szükségletek szállításából (például élelmiszerek) is kivették részüket, illetve a metróépítések idején a kitermelt földet is szállították.

It really does annoy me when I wrack my brain all day looking for a shot, trying different things...and nothing..
A book of matches sitting on the window sill (don't ask) caught my eye. The processing involved only burn and dodging and of course a crop.
...time folds. And you find yourself overlaying the present with a moment from the past. And your experience of things builds in strange ways and those folds become more intricate. We bob and weave, duck and dive through it. There are moments when we're invisible to ourselves and others when we're in many moments at once. And all the time we're edging forward, but it's slow and fast at once. We're so impatient we don't see how steadily we're hurtling through it, using it all up.
