For Macro Mondays theme; "Slices of Food". HMM!

 

I recently learned that eating a few crackers and cheese before retiring for the night, will help you sleep better. Maybe I should try out the theory since I'm such a lite sleeper.

 

1st of my "Spring squares" macro shots.

Spider a little out of my reach, on the roof of a bungalow and the 60mm didn't work for me, I lack height, I used the 105mm to reach it.

This is another shot froma sunset at the end of the 'Possecker Allee' at Gassenreuth. I enjoyed this nice view last Friday and tried to get a shot with a small DOF. I really like the result.

 

Diesen Sonnenuntergang habe ich am Freitag abend eingefangen. Mir ging es darum, eine Stimmung mit mölichst geriner Schärfentiefe abzubilden. Ich mag dieses Bild sehr!

These pansies were half dead and lying on the floor neglected and kicked around. On clearance for 50p I liked their dying colours so I bought them and cared for them. This is the result, class and beauty don't have to cost a lot.

For Macro Mondays theme; "leaf". HMM!

 

Picked these colorful leaves outside of our cabin door. The Labrador tea plant grows abundantly throughout our boreal forest, and has just changed into its autumn colors. The leaves measure about one inch in length, and one quarter inch across at the widest point.

 

Labrador Tea is native to Alaska, Canada, Greenland, northern and central Europe, northern China, Korea, and Japan. It grows in bogs, woods with peaty soils, alpine slopes, and tundra. Because it lives well in acidic soils with poor nutrient supply, it is often found in black spruce forests in the interior of Alaska.

Jewelry can identify you

Or not

It depends on the thought behind

Sometimes you just fancy them and have no clue if they actually have a meaning, hidden or not

 

For some reason human beings love to wear hearts

Cherishing the thought of its meaning, mayby even lacking what it's meaning

Lacking not to receive it

Lacking having someone to give it to

Or maybe you just want to symbolize who you are or who you want to be

 

I found this heart in my office drawer some years ago and thought it was my daughters, I thought it was fake stuff

I liked it and she wasn't around at the time so I put it around my neck to remember giving it to her when she came home and I loved wearing it

 

Months later I found that it was white gold and diamonds for real and that it was mine, lol - no use giving me expensive jewelry obviously

 

The Diamond, in its rarity and beauty, is a symbol of purity and innocence, of love and fidelity, and embraces strength of character, ethics, and faithfulness to oneself and others.

It is a love-bearing crystal, no wonder they belong in the shape of a heart.

 

Pearls do get tired of being worn all the time, so I had some years not wearing my biwa pearl, but last year I needed the energy it could give me. Pearls symbolize wisdom acquired through experience and offer protection and I needed this in 2018.

 

I just had to wear them both at the time.

 

They symbolize me and my journey and although I'm safe and sound now they are now around my neck again, probably for years - I don't change my jewelry so often 😁

 

Happy Macro Mondays you all!

💖💖💖💞💖💖💖

The path was filled with them, a pretty cool sight

Cute isnt it

Even nature need helpers

Just like us

If it hadn't been for the ants this peony bulb wouldn't blossom

Looking down on a whirling dervish?

Posted for Macro Mondays theme; "Abstract".

Summertime means book reading

And reading outside means that you get visitors on your book

I love my macro lens, this visitor was extremely tiny and fitted perfectly in my macro garden cosmos

. . For Macro Mondays theme; "Two".

A tiny Alder leaf, and an alder catkin (less than a half of an inch) are the subjects of the theme "two". They were found under a tree near my cabin, after surviving our long Alaskan winter.

HMM everyone.

The story behind the image:

I saw a couple of scarce swallowtails floating between the trees and the lilac bushes but most of them did not land or did not allow me to get within a macro shooting distance- except this beauty.

For Smile on Saturday theme; "There is a hole in . . "

HSoS!

This old can lid is between 50 and 60 years old. It has been buried in the ground after being tossed by an old Alaskan Roadhouse many long years ago.
