Macro Mondays Theme: I Made This
This is one of the pieces I made for my Textiles GCSE coursework many moons ago. It's a 3D picture of the back of 2 teddy bears, one with its arm around the other. One bear has a red knitted jumper on. This is part of the bears' cuffed sleeve and arm. It's been hung in my little brothers' bedroom and then my 3 childrens bedrooms too. Now it's relegated as they are too old for it.
Thanks for all your favourites, comments and views. I really appreciate them and HMM to everyone!

#Sidelit
Meet Fips, the fuzzy wire foxterrier. And sidelit Fips is even fuzzier. Not exactly what I wanted to do for the theme, but then I actually didn't know what I wanted to do for the theme in the first place ;) So I tried several things and decided to pick what looks best, or at least what looks the cutest. Cute won. I've also always wanted to have Fips feature in a macro shot, so why not for "Sidelit". Fips is a doll house dog, 4,2 cm / 1,6 inches long and 4,5 cm / 1,77 inches high (measured from paw to ear), and Fips' head is 2 cm / 0,78 inches long. The sticker on Fips' tummy says "Handmade" "Made in Germany" and "Wagner", but unfortunately I couldn't find any info on the manufacturer, I assume it's long out of business. Fips was a present from my mother, and she gave it to me at a time when our wire foxterrier Anton was still alive, and that's a very long time ago. Fips had an accident a few years ago where he lost his nose – I made him a new one from modeling clay.
Sidelit with a single lamp from the left (obviously); general processing done in DXO, next I went into Color Efex (filters used: Darken/Lighten Center and Reflector Efex "Gold"), and then into Analog Efex, where I tweaked the Classic Camera preset 7. I've also added some soft grain to the image, something I usually don't do, to underline the vintage touch and the shagginess of wire hair ;)
HMM, Everyone, and have a nice week ahead!
Darf ich vorstellen: Fips, der kleine Drahthaar-Foxterrier, gemacht für Puppenhäuser, aber bei mir wohnt er auf dem Schreibtisch neben der Tastatur. Fips ist ein Mitbringsel von meiner Mutter, sie hat ihn mir geschenkt, als unser Foxterrier Anton noch lebte, und das ist wahrlich Ewigkeiten her. So verwundert es auch nicht, dass ich keine Informationen mehr zum Hersteller finden konnte. Auf Fips' Bäuchlein prangt ein Aufkleber, auf dem "Wagner", "Handmade" und "Made in Germany" steht; aber alle Suchanfragen zu "Wagner" im Zusammenhang mit Puppenhäusern etc. waren erfolglos. Vermutlich gibt es die Firma schon lange nicht mehr.
Dafür habe ich aber ein hübsches Gedicht von Christian Morgenstern gefunden, das ich Euch nicht vorenthalten möchte (Hinweis: der Name Scholz soll keine irgendwie geartete Anspielung auf die Politik in diesem Lande sein, ich habe das Gedicht lediglich wegen "Fips" ausgewählt):
Ein kleiner Hund mit Namen Fips
erhielt vom Onkel einen Schlips
aus gelb und roter Seide.
Die Tante aber hat, o denkt,
ihm noch ein Glöcklein drangehängt
zur Aug- und Ohrenweide.
Hei, war der kleine Hund da stolz.
Das merkt sogar der Kaufmann Scholz
im Hause gegenüber.
Den grüßte Fips sonst mit dem Schwanz;
jetzt ging er voller Hoffart ganz
an seiner Tür vorüber.
Für Infos zum Foto bitte den englischen Text z.B. in DeepL übersetzen lassen, sonst sprenge ich hier noch den Rahmen, wenn ich alles auf Deutsch wiederhole. Danke :)
Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne Herbstwoche, liebe Flickr-Freunde, bleibt gesund!

When we were in Old Quebec City in July, the weather was dull and wet - not very inspiring for pictures. That being said, I liked this scene with the leading lines of a wet boardwalk up to to the Chateau Frontenac. Here I had a low ISO of 50 with f18 and 1/20 sec. The camera was mounted on a tripod to keep it steady but with that slow speed, fuzzy people were inevitable.
I love caterpillars. Almost more than butterflies! I found this fine fuzzy fellow in my yard, and was thrilled! I picked him up carefully, and brought him in the house to show my husband. Strangely, he did not seem to share my enthusiasm. So I took the little guy (caterpillar, not husband!) back out into the yard for a few photo ops. I carefully put him on several different plants and bushes, snapping photos all the while. Then I came back inside and googled the creature. To my shock and dismay, this is what I discovered: "Beware of hairy yellow caterpillars with black spikes. They are American dagger moths that have have toxic properties when hairs are touched." The toxin can cause hives and/or an ugly rash!! Yikes! My fuzzy friend is no longer a friend....
