Welsh Poppy (Papaver cambricum). I have quite a few of these poppies in the garden. This shot was taken on a day of sunshine and showers, just after a heavy downpour.

Twisted Plant

A small copper stone that came from Copper Harbor in the Keweenaw Peninsula of Michigan. A small part has been cleaned and polished

This is considered "float copper" pieces of this can be picked up when found.

Volcanic activity produced the only strata on Earth where large-scale economically recoverable 97 percent pure native copper is found.

Much of the native copper found in the Keweenaw comes in either the form of cavity fillings on lava flow surfaces, which has a ”lacy” consistency, or as "float" copper, which is found as a solid mass. Copper ore may occur within conglomerate or breccia as void or interclast fillings. The conglomerate layers occur as interbedded units within the volcanic pile.

Macro Mondays theme: Pick Two

I chose the words fuzzy and plant.

My effort for Macro Mondays on the theme of Pick Two. Delicate Pottery - my wife's dragons have delicate ears like this little chap who has lost one..

Two items for this Macro Monday - Blue and Bottlecap

Borage blooms pink, then turns blue. The perfect flower for the theme

The 1/21/19 theme for Macro Mondays is Pick Two, one from a list of descriptive words and one from a list of nouns. So, I picked damaged glass.

#MacroMondays #PickTwo .... a possibility.

This may be the most useful of the eight or so possibilities for the theme for today, 6/14. I’ll probably put them all up and then dither

These forgotten candies spent years in the pocket of my bag....

Pick Two

I had a hard time deciding which image to post for Macro Mondays. One of my top three choices. This is twisted branches of a trailing plant in a hanging basket.

HMM! Thanks for stopping by and for all of your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

Macro Mondays: Pick Two

List A: 5. Metallic

List B: 5. Basket

I was doing some yard work earlier this year and came across someone's long lost toy car.

metallic dots – detail of a little container I made

The two words I have chosen are Damaged/Toy.

Our cat Misty has had great fun in attacking this little toy; and as you can see one of its hands is missing and its legs are severely damaged too!

Damaged plant

Photo taken for the June 14, 2021 Macro Mondays theme: pick two. My choices were striped + brush.

I think the bristles came this way...although the rust is not from the factory. ;)

The bristles are approx. 1" across.

Striped+Insect equals this Red-headed Ash Borer

A Macro Mondays submission on the topic "Pick two". The challenge was to pick an adjective and noun from two lists and I have chosen "yellow flower". Just to carry the theme further, here are two yellow flowers! The Australian wildflower Hibbertia linearis, or Guinea flower, photographed in Manly Dam, a wildlife reserve near my home.

Fancy way to broke your glass of wine...

It was just waiting to be eaten!

Little red stone fell into water, was shot under water surfice

I have been enjoying my amaryllis plant for over a month now. This was the first out of four blossoms to bloom. Now it's petals have withered and twisted.and yellow, fuzzy pollen dusts my table top. HMM
