I have a few small pencils, 3" long and between 1/8" and 1/4 wide. They must have come either with magazines or ads for a magazine, as some are marked "Reader's Digest", "Time Magazine" or "Sports Illustrated". I preferred photographing the bottoms of them, as they had more graphic appeal.
The Miniature Railroadās story began in 1919 with a man named Charles Bowdish of Brookville, PA. Originally a holiday display on the second floor of his house, it moved to the Buhl Planetarium in 1954, and ultimately found its final home at Carnegie Science Center in 1992.

My parents bought this miniature gnome (less than 1" high) the year I was born. It is the only remaining member of what I remember as quite a large set. There was a time when it was a holiday decoration; now it lives all year in my kitchen.

Spatter Cones is one of the miniature volcanoes in Craters of The Moon in Idaho, USA.
These "miniature" volcanoes form during the final stages of a fissure type eruption. As gases escape and pressure is released, the lava becomes thick and pasty. When these sticky globs of lava plop to the surface, they pile up to form spatter cones.

For this week's Macro Mondays challenge "Hobby" I have chosen a simple shot of one of the miniature houses that I collect. I have had this hobby since I was a child when I was always allowed to buy something as a holiday momento. Most often I would choose a miniature house, cottage, windmill, or lighthouse to add to my collection. Over the years other people have given me all sorts of little houses, including one very precious one which was my husband's wedding gift to me!
