For the Macro Mondays theme: "Corner".
An experiment in folding with a piece of very strong metallic paper…I didn't got the end result I wanted it to have, but I'm glad I took a photo of this in-between step.
Happy Macro Monday ;-))
I made a lot of photos of this little origami King Dragon, because of the various expressions it got, depending on the position of the head, besides that it was fun folding it ;-))
In this shot one can see a figure like mythological person instead of a dragon. That's the reason I show you this last version of this lovely origami model. I processed the photo to give it a more magical look.
In the first comment box you can see two previous photos of the same model.
Enjoy your Sunday and stay safe ;-)

" Lost in skies of powdered gold
Caught in clouds of silver ropes
Showered by the empty hopes
As I tumble down, falling fast to the ground
I know I'll wither so peel away the bark
'Cause nothing grows when it is dark
In spite of all my fears, I can see it all so clear
I see it all so clear
Woah
Cover your crystal eyes
And feel the tones that tremble down your spine
Woah
Cover your crystal eyes
And let your colours bleed and blend with mine
Making waves in pitch black sand
Feel the salt dance on my hands
Raw and charcoal coloured thighs
Feel so cold and my skin feels so paper-thin... "

This image was created for the Macro Monday group.
I placed some folded paper on a glass coffee table with a light source beneath, then took some shots from above.
By moving the light and changing the coloured paper, you can achieve some very interesting results, this is just one of them!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such lovely comment, it's very much appreciated!
Stay safe and healthy my friends!

There were so many things to try. Everthing I tried I was liking. The closer I got. The better it was.
Happy Macro Mondays
For the Macro Mondays theme"Begins with the Letter P": Pre-creasing paper for folding.
When you fold with vellum, the creases becomes white lines. The vellum gets actually damaged and the risk it might tear is very big, so it is necessary to fold with great care.
HMM for everyone ;-)
Conrail freight ELKA5, led by EMD GP38-2 No. 8134, cruises through New Carlisle, Indiana, during a snowfall on January 15, 1994, in a panned photograph. It wasn’t until I received the Kodachrome slide from processor that I noticed the conductor neatly framed in the cab windows, using ambient light from bright snow to read the morning paper!
For Macro Mondays and Pick Two.
This week's Macro Mondays theme is to pick two, one from each list.
The colours:
Red
Blue
Yellow
Pink
The items:
Flower
Bottle Cap
Paper
Pen
...and combine them in a macro photo. This is a thin, cellophane-like, translucent paper that made folding difficult for me. All one hue, but the lights make it look like many.
About 4cm /1.5 inches across.
My husband prefers this one. He isn't keen on abstract or bokeh balls.
Thanks for looking.
For Macro Mondays. I was attempting to get a neatly made coil of paper, but found it more difficult than I anticipated. I squashed many and then found they unrolled too fast but I didn't want any paper clips to be seen. So something that should have been simple took several goes. I am trying to learn to be patient!
This week's theme for Mosaic Montage Monday was Torn Paper.
Remembering back to an art class in college, the professor wanted to teach us how to train our eyes to see Grayscale. So he asked us to simply tear out 10 pieces of paper from a newspaper and arrange them according to their intensity value, then glue them onto black construction paper.
Nowadays, all my newspapers have color pictures, so I used an old magazine that was already cut up. Now, I always have a Grayscale reference! If you try it, don't forget to play with the scraps, too! HMMM!

One night, I attempted to sketch my mother. I worked on the drawing for a while, focusing mainly on her eyes. For some reason, I could not capture that sense of watchful isolation that shielded her vision. Hence, I practiced on Ms. Angel Aquino's portrait instead. I knew then that if I get this portrait "right", I would be able to draw my mother's portrait...and I did.
This is actually the "Genesis" of most of the pieces on my SHADOWS series- a compressed charcoal study on a 90gsm smooth paper.

For some of my dear friends on Flickr, who don't fold and are curious of how the folding takes place, I decide to photograph some steps, to reveil "the secret", no just kidding ;-), it's really so nice to know you are interested.
First I cut out a hexagon out of a piece of paper, sometimes out of a square, sometimes out of a rectangle and then I start to make/fold the division of the grid that I need. This is somewhere in between......I still have to do a lot.
I used very thin paper with plenty of fiber, as you can see.... there is a very big one........ Because I wanted to see if I could tessellate this kind of paper...., always like a challenge........ to be continued.
The rolled paper is shot from above - it is on a tray table with a translucent top - the flash is below the table.
Laowa 2X Super Macro
These are 3" x 3" Post-It Notes that have been rolled in half and held together with a paper clip. The light source is a large window at the top left. The 3 main circle-top areas are less than 1.5" total width, so the estimated total width is less than 2.5" W. It's fun to turn the paper and adjust the camera to see numerous views of the same subject. Plus, the super macro lens allows me to get very close to the subject, and the depth-of-field is extremely shallow. This lens blurs the background at f/8.0 or less, but unfortunately doesn't record the depth-of-field in the EXIF data. I'm guessing this is f/4.0 or lower. I'm a rookie with this lens and have plenty to learn. But, I like that it allows me to think "outside the box". In other words, it's fun.
Please have a great day.....
