Festive seasons, Christmas gift wrapped in red paper, with a single star and some golden tinsel.

 

The Star, tip to tip is less than 4 cm. But for Macro Mondays, theme "festive season" it shown not from tip to tip, at least not in all directions.

 

The background is a a book already wrapped, a golden star and some golden tinsel.

 

First light source was late morning light, second light source reflection from a cosmetic mirror.

Things I ♥ Month Continues! You know I have my deep love for Bokeh in a Jar, so it only makes sense that I would love...

 

Depth of Field: DoF (as it's more commonly known here on Flickr), is the portion of a photograph that appears in focus, while the remainder of the image is defocused...or what I like to call a-w-e-s-o-m-e. For me, the more shallow the DoF, the more my heart skips a beat. In fact, do you see my heart (which happened naturally in-camera)?

 

Big Love

 

Note: Speaking of friends, I want to thank Lynda, for writing the most wonderful testimonial! Her stream is filled with amazing wildlife & macro shots, so please pop over now! :)

I have been going through my archives tonight weeding out some that I am not really happy with and I came across these two that I had forgotten about. It is now almost 1 a.m. Saturday morning here "down under" so I am off to bed. Catch you in the morning (but that is probably when some of you are going to bed lol). It is difficult to keep up with the differences in day and night around the world.

I am a RAT!

 

Rat people are so charming and attractive they are always surrounded by friends and admirers. They can also be lone tumbleweeds, seldom making lasting friendships. Known as Perfectionists, they never want to lose face. It takes an understanding friend to get them to "put on the dancing plumes." Rat people have vivid imagination and are known for creating extraordinarily magic moments in time. Not surprisingly, the sensitive Rats have the gift of insight and clairvoyance, so you better watch out what you think around them! Rats enjoy being leaders and pacesetters and usually enjoy extraordinary success in life.

 

When water rats talk, people listen. Commanding and eloquent, always the center of attention, the Water Rats also have a soft side that endears them to the world. When the world needs, Water Rats are there. Humanitarian fighters against hunger, illness, sadness, they try to bring happiness to others through their compassionate endeavors and smiling warmth. When the world wants a friend, it's the loyal and sincere Water Rat which draws them in. The Water Rat has a successful career but money-wise, it's pretty much middle of the road. Changing free-spending ways could lead to financial security if they are willing to make the effort. Their natural charisma attracts members of the opposite sex like wildfire, but Water Rats often don't set their standards high enough and are quite indiscriminate in seeking love affairs, until they finally settle down later in life. Once this happens, they advance pretty far exhibiting oodles of charm with their loved ones.

 

Famous RAT people: Richard Nixon, Shakespeare, Prince Charles, Julia Child, Louis Armstrong, Prince Andrew, Andrew Lloyd-Webber, Kathleen Battle, Albert Finney

Art is both creation and recreation. Of the two ideas, I think art as recreation or as sheer play of the human spirit is more important.

I went for my first run in 2 weeks. Only 3 miles. It hurt. Which means it needed to be done. Oh and it might have hurt because there's a 25mph stead wind with gusts > 35mph. Ouch. These seeds I photographed last week are surely long gone...
