Macro Mondays: Layers

macromondays theme: just white paper

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !

Today is an orange day at Color my World Daily and we have Mr. Teddy Bear with us to celebrate Happy Teddy bear Tuesdays. And the theme at Crazy Tuesday is Folded or Creased Paper.

This is a perfect day for Mr. Teddy Bear to daydream about sailing on his blue paper boat. Mr. Teddy Bear has a passion for sailing and a passion for boats. So that is why he has so many paper boats ! Once he starts to fold the paper he can’t stop and he has to make several boats of the same color. And then he makes one extra just in case ! That is why Mr. Teddy Bear has more and more paper boats in his house. He can hardly wait to be able to take his boats outside and go on a romantic get away with Princess… Spring is definitely here so it will not be long until sailing is enjoyable again !

Meanwhile, I have to « sail » in a general direction of my living room office !See you later my friends !! And have a beautiful day !

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!

Just White Paper for Macro Mondays

Paper bird made to stick on a card

A few young guys were playing around (taking photos / video clips) with these paper boats in the breakwater of the East Cost Park Precinct.

This photo let me remember of the old Cantonese song 《紙船》 [Paper Boat], released in 1982, by the famous Hong Kong Cantopop singer / songwriter / actor Sam Hui ( 許冠傑).

《紙船》

作曲/填詞：許冠傑 (1982)

路經海邊見隻小船

懷人萬里心暗酸

異鄉的她腦海湧現

如何把相思串

拾起張紙摺隻小船

徐徐地放於水面

靜心閉目許個願

船兒匆匆飄遠

望船實踐我這個願

遙遙長路也不倦

直去到她身邊

只求跟她一見

若她終於見隻紙船

盤旋夢裡千百轉

望她珍惜當中意義

齊齊把相思串

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Paper Boat]

Composed/lyrics by Sam Hui (1982).

Lyrics (an unofficial English translation from internet, not singable):

Walking pass the seaside, ( I ) see a small boat

Remind me of that person, thousands of miles away, make me feel sad inside

(Image of) her who is in foreign land rush into my mind

How to make our hearts connect

Pick up a piece of paper and fold a little boat

Gently lay it down on the water

Clear my mind, close my eyes and make a wish

(Watching) the little (paper) boat quickly floats afar

I hope the (paper) boat could fulfill this wish of mine

Tirelessly travel long way away

Straight to her side

Only hope to see her once

if she finally see a paper boat

Drifting in circle endlessly in her dream

Hope she could cherish the meaning of it

Together, let's make our hearts connect

The flower pot is one side of a paper mache egg, then there is paper grass and an added bloom out of paper.

Happy Macro Monday and have a lovely new week friends!

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 ;-)

Macro Monday

Theme: Paper Art

Size: Less than 3x3 inches

The subject is a piece of tissue paper. I sprinkle some water drops on the paper and crunched it randomly to create these shapes.

With a bit of imagination it looks like hills and crumbling icebergs.

There are 2 sources of light , an overhead incandescent table lamp light and a LED torch under neath the tissue paper.

Many thanks for your visit, comments and faves...it is always

appreciated.

Looking Close on Friday theme: made of paper

Thank you for your kind comments and favs. All are greatly appreciated. HLCoF

As you (perhaps) known I like to fold with all kind of paper and investigate what the effect will be, in others words how the model (in this case my "Molecule-blocks-tessellation") will look.

This here is a piece of Freudenberg paper 15x15cm with a printed pattern on it. I just took a photo of it to show you how the paper looks unfolded.

Here you can see the results ;-)

With love (approximately 35 years ago or so) from our younger daughter.

(Polistes) Considering I was using a 200mm - 800mm lens, hand held, to catch this I was quite pleased with the result!

I have chosen for my favorite theme of the year, January 16: Just White Paper. Photographing paper is fascinating and white paper very challenging still.
