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.

English Bluebells, Hyacinthoides non-scripta, [also known as Native Bluebells] at Bunny Old Wood Nature Reserve, Nottinghamshire, which is part of Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust and English Nature.
The Woodland Trust #BigBluebellWatch
The wood is widely recognised as one of the leading places in the UK to see Native Bluebells and was mentioned in the Domesday Book.
Best viewed full screen. Looks far better on a PC/Laptop monitor.
I bought this glass star 20 years ago and hung it in our kitchen window. I love the way the early morning sun dances on it, causing it to glisten with colours that aren't readily obvious until the sun lights it up. I've never taken a photo of it, before, so this has been a fun opportunity to record its beauty.
In New Zealand, during Summer, we are constantly being reminded about about SLIP, SLOP, SLAP, SEEK, SLIDE.

My picture features a sheet of New Zealand Christmas wrapping paper. Christmas happens in the middle of Summer, here, so Christmas Day for the majority of us usually happens at the beach with a BBQ and of course we're all dressed in shorts and t-shirt. Families will enjoy their BBQ lunch (or dinner because we're on daylight saving and it doesn't get dark until 9pm) then they'll swim or play cricket on the sand or nearby grass area. You may notice that my wrapping paper features New Zealand Christmassy symbols, such as a BBQ and Jandals (perhaps known as flip-flops or thongs to you?) HMM and have a Merry Christmas 🎅

Recently visited Oldmoor Wood, Nottinghamshire. Oldmoor Wood is a woodland in Nottinghamshire, near the village of Strelley. It covers a total area of 15.11 hectares. It is owned and managed by The Woodland Trust.
I went primarily for the beautiful Bluebells. There is a mix of Native and Spanish Bluebells.
Native Bluebells are protected in the UK under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981.
How to tell the difference.
English Bluebells: Flowers on one side of the stem.
Spanish Bluebells: Flowers all around the stem.

Pins can be prickles that puncture and hurt
Pins can be joiners that hold up your skirt
Pins can be holders to set cards on your wall
Pins can be saviours when your buttons all fall
What would we do without pins?
I'm really enjoying this process. This is the handle hinge of a blue transparent plastic bucket (i.e. the entire bucket is made from blue transparent plastic, including the handle). I used lights inside and outside the bucket, to create shadows, etc. HMM 😀
It started as a bit of fun however has, over the years, developed into a whacky tradition. On Christmas Eve the two of us always have a drink of bubbly and a piece of christmas cake. It started with a strawberry on the side of the glass and a tiny umbrella set into that. One year, for a bit of fun, I put a wedge of tomato on the glass instead of the strawberry. It looked so interesting that I have continued doing it (must be for more than 10 years). Each year I add something different to the mix so these days we're up to two glasses on the tray, christmas cake, christmas mince pies, licorice allsorts and fake flashing coloured light cubes. Absolutely the silliest tradition, yet heaps of fun. 🎄🎅
An experiment on waterproof feathers! Sad colours I know, but I was more interested in getting the detail and DOF right, than I was in looking for a brightly coloured feather!
