Der Schwarzbraunbinden-Blattspanner, auch als Bergwald-Blattspanner bezeichnet, ist ein Schmetterling aus der Familie der Spanner.
Dieser kleine Kerl war ziemlich hektisch gewesen. Habe mich Ihm langsam genähert und war kurz davor meine Kamera drauf zu halten, da flog Er auch wieder weg.
Zudem setze Er sich dann auch immer an solchen Positionen (zb. tief im Gras auf Bodennähe) die einen sehr unruhigen Hintergrund verursachen würden und das wollte ich halt nicht.
Nach ca. 40 Anläufen oder so hat Er sich dann schön an einem Grashalm gesetzt :)

Sometimes photos don't quite turn out how we plan...like this one.🙈 I was intending to take a crisp macro shot of these water droplets, but instead I ended up with this dreamy abstract looking image. Which I love, by the way, much more than the image I thought I was taking 💜
What photos have you taken that you've loved more than the planned shot?

Oak Galls, also known as Oak Apples, I've never heard of them. Looked them up, They are quite fascinating. If you don't know check this out

In New Zealand our main mobile phone providers are Spark, Vodafone, 2 Degrees, Skinny. I have been with them all, at different times, sometimes having to change because of the lack of coverage in an area I moved to. We've been on Skinny for the past 5 years however last week, when there was a big storm, their tower in our area went down. Although they said it had been repaired, we still have no signal in our house.
I have an iPhone and my husband has a Samsung Android phone. His phone always gets way better mobile coverage than mine, no matter where we are. I cancelled my Skinny sim card, in favour of one from 2 Degrees, and now I have good coverage in the house. Somehow they sent me 2 sim cards. When I called to tell them this, they told me not to return the extra one but rather to bin it, so I cut it in half. Then I read that our next Macro Mondays theme was to be "card" so I dragged out the cut-up sim card and proceeded to photograph it.
Some things are all about timing.
I love this ring and always wear it. I bought it in 2009 in a funny little gift shop attached to the ancient ruins of Glendalough Cathedral, Ireland. The ruins are in County Wicklow, renowned for the early Medieval monastic settlement that was founded in the 6th century by St Kevin. I was on a bus tour that went from London, to various cities and towns heading north, to Edinburgh, back into England and across to Ireland, around Ireland, across to Wales and back to London. I bought the ring because there seemed to be something special about the place where the ruins were - a strong feeling of the ancients. I also needed a pick-me-up because British Airways had lost my suitcase en route from New Zealand to London (I later learned it had gone to Singapore) and when I arrived in England I only had the clothes I was wearing. I had half a day before the tour departed, to set myself up with another suitcase and a few clothes. It was a 3-week tour and I never did get my own suitcase back until we returned to London on the last day. I just love my ring but, unfortunately at the moment, I have a hand condition that means I am unable to wear it on a finger so lately I've been wearing it on a chain around my neck.

What a very cool film camera, from its rose-gold plastic body to it's very long zoom lens, that fits perfectly into my pocket. Olympus MJU VF 140 is a fully-automatic 35 mm autofocus lens-shutter camera with built-in 38-140mm zoom lens that takes wonderful pictures. There's nothing more to say other than"click".
When a theme is set, I’m amazed at what I find, to set up a photo to suit.
The theme is Pink, they said. What did I have that’s pink when I like blue?
The official name for my "pink thing" is Multi Functional Microwave Oven Heating Layered Steaming Tray.
I use it in the microwave when I need a double layer to heat several items at once. On the pink tray are some Fancy Bead Caps, leftover from my jewellery making days. Under the pink tray is a square LED light. I set the camera up close and there's my picture. Voila!
Yes, it was a challenge to find five 'somethings' that were the same, yet also somewhat unusual. So what are they? They're tiny magnetic plugs that fit into your devices as part of a magnetic charging system. I have these in all my mobile devices (there's a little plug to fit each USB type and then the one magnetic charging cable fits onto any of them). The fun part in doing this, was attempting to control the way the little magnetic plugs randomly clung hard together when I was trying to set them into a pattern. Do you think they would stay where I put them? No way. They had minds of their own. HMM 😀
Check out the rusty old latches
Our selection's the absolute best
There's rust in unique and custom designs
Some come with a bonus cob-web
Whatever you fancy, we have it in stock
Used gate latch, old barn lock, or door
Or maybe a rust-forged slide-bolt will suit
To match with your rusty decor?

Native to New Zealand this tree fern is prominent around our entire country. Fortunately it's also in my backyard, where we have a small forest of many different native trees.
I thought you might enjoy something I read about the Mamaku......."Would the arms (the frond stalks) of the tree fern beat you in an arm wrestle? If so, it’s most likely a Mamaku (also known as a black tree fern)."
Well they certainly beat you around the head a little when you walk through the forest, so perhaps an arm wrestle is next on the list?
After about 60 - 70 pics w/ speedlight, only one worked..My knees are killing me..lol..I have to start using a tripod..
So this was fun. Here in New Zealand we're in a strict lock-down. Until yesterday we were not allowed to leave our homes and unfortunately we had no sweets in the house (we call candy, sweets, rather than candy). On Friday night the Covid Level changed and so I was able to go out, strictly on a go there and go straight home basis. We're only meant to be going to a supermarket (no other shops are open) to buy essentials, so I bought some flour as well as licorice allsorts. I might add, they're delicious. 😅

This is my very small Joby tripod. It's nice and small, pocket size, and I take it with me in my jacket pocket when out with my cameras. It's flexible legs are great - they bend and curve as I need them to. I use this one particularly for mushroom photography.
Happy Macro Mondays
A macro detail of a small, polished lace agate slab - it shows some rather pretty patterning, I think, and the red-orange-brown color is natural (of course).

So here we have my kitchen grater which is four-sided with a handle on top. I started off taking photos of the bigger holes. Then I put a red light and a white light behind it and, voila, the small holes on the opposite side of the grater showed up. That surprised me, so I moved the lights around to show up the background holes more strikingly. Wow, these macro topics can be such fun and bring about rather surprising and delightful results. I would never have done any of this without a little prompting and I'm loving it. HMM 😀
Here's a picture of the grater

This turned out beyond my expectations. The picture happened with a thin tablet of soap, lathered up under water, then placed on a glass shelf with a light underneath. When I saw the resultant picture I was very excited at how lovely it came out. Isn't it great?
Settling off on their journey, those with window seats get their final views of Dublin as their Shamrock Aer Lingus A320 heads for the runway.
From snapping, texting or perhaps just watching the world go by, fasten your seatbelt.
This was fun to do. The beads are about 1mm diameter, so it was 'interesting' trying to balance them and keep them in place. Lovely challenge. HMM 😀
I absolutely love this perfume. The bottle I have now is the 3rd one I have bought, over the years. I got it duty free at Noumea Airport, New Caledonia, about 4 years ago. My photo shows the point where the tube, from the aerosol top, goes down into the perfume. I really enjoyed taking this photo because all I could smell, while I was doing it, was the perfume.
Lucky shot... Didn't even know what I captured until I brought it home and looked on laptop..was surprised
I have a little padded pouch bag that has 3 zips. Late last week, I was about to give it away because I no longer have a use for it. Then I noticed that the zips have silver highlights on the top of the teeth, which is actually quite attractive, and realised there was my "Zed". Participating in Macro Mondays is certainly helping me to be a lot more observant and I enjoy how beautiful everyday items can end up looking in my photos.
