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.

3. Delicate
4. Curved √
5. Metallic
One object to photograph:
List B
1. Pottery
2. Insect
3. Stone

My choices are 4 and 4 = 16 x lovely 😍
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!
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.
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 😀

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?

Geometry shapes are all around
my maths professor said
of angles there are seven types
zero, acute, right, obtuse,
and then there are instead
straight, reflex, complete
they show up everywhere
defined at the point where two rays meet
curves, straight lines, adjacent lines, squared lines
points, circles squares, rectangles
you'll even see them in the street
They're everywhere………….

And what is my picture? It's a small portion of two cake cooling racks, set at angles and stood against a piece of white paper, then shone with red, green, blue bright lights to create shadows and accentuate the different angles. It almost looks like a piece of tartan, don't you think? It certainly shows to me how geometry is everywhere.

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?

In its 5th and final Instar the Monarch Caterpillar is almost ready to stop eating and form itself into a J shape and then, after about 24 hours, form its chrysalis.

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?
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. 😅
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 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.
Se trata de una de las libélulas más vistosas en lagos y ríos de nuestras tierras.
Es tracta d'una de les libèl·lules més vistoses en llacs i rius de les nostres terres.
It is one of the most colorful dragonflies in the lakes and rivers of our lands.
