I have to admit............ I'm a paper-addict. As long as I can remember I have to feel paper, to smell paper, perhaps in my early childhood have been eaten it ;-)
And since I discovered origami, it got even worse........ I never seem to have the right paper for the model I'm folding ;-)
This is just a SOOC of paper-foil.
For the Macro Mondays theme: Guilty Pleasure.
A very Happy Macro Monday everyone ;-)

for a Happy Sunday!
If you love these "symbols of summer" too,
have a look at my Dahlia Collection.
Premièrement j'aimerais vous remercier toutes et tous pour vos merveilleux commentaires et favoris, ils sont très appréciés.
Duhamel, Québec, Canada.
Plein cadre
Hiver 2020 pas beaucoup d'oiseaux chez moi, quelques mésanges, 5 Juncos ardoisés, 2 Bruants hudsonien et des Geais bleus en abondance, de vrais pillards et hypers agressifs et territoriaux. Ils sont quand même brillants... Ils se font constamment des réserves en cachant toute la nourriture que je mets aux mangeoires et chassent tous les intrus de ces derniers... Ce beau Cardinal mâle est le premier que j'ai le plaisir d'avoir à Duhamel et les Geais bleu parfois au nombre impressionnant d'une vingtaine l'arcelle continuellement, il ne vient plus aux mangeoires que très tôt le matin ou en toute fin de journée ou lorsqu'il fait sombre comme durant cette neige... Pas facile de faire une photo car il est extremement nerveux, les Geais bleus lui foncent carrément dessus les ailes ouvertes, du jamais vu pour moi....
First I would like to thank you all for your wonderful comments and favorites, they are very much appreciated.
Duhamel, Quebec, Canada.
Full Frame
Winter 2020 not many birds at my place, some chickadees, 5 Dark Eyes Juncos, 2 Hudson's Buntings and Blue Jays in abundance, They really are aggressive and territorial birds. They are still very smart and brilliant ... They are constantly making reserve by hiding all the food that I put in the feeders and chasing all the intruders of them ... This beautiful male Cardinal is the first that I have the pleasure to have in Duhamel and the Blue Jay sometimes at the impressive number of twenty arace him continuously, it does not come to the feeders until very early in the morning or at the end of the day or when it is dark as during this snow storm... Not easy to take a picture of him because he is extremely nervous, the Blue Jays dive at him with open wings, a first for me to have that type of comportement....
When feeling lost, I find meaning in the simple pleasures of life.

We took a nice little tour today North, behind the hills of the Wiehengebirge to visit some windmills. One of my favorites is the mill of Eickhorst ,Ostwestfalen, Germany
I love tulips, even when they are broken.
Can't wait every year to buy the first ones...
Thank you for comments and favs!
Sehnsüchtig warte ich jedes Jahr auf die ersten Tulpen...
Vielen Dank für Eure Kommentare und Sternchen!

Maximize all the pleasure
Even with all this weather
Nothing can make it better
Maximize all the pleasure
The Pleasure House Folly was originally built as a 2 storey lookout house to keep watch for pirates and smugglers at the nearby quay in North Devon
Towards the end of the 18th century, it was converted into a folly as part of a broader grand architectural landscape re-design
"That pleasure which is at once the most pure,
the most elevating and the most intense,
is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of the beautiful."
Quote - Edgar Allan Poe
happy weekend dear friends!
Dreamt of you last night
Woke up
You weren’t there
Five nights in a row
Of dreams
I’d never share
You come without a warning
Early in the morning
Timing’s never been our thing
Leaving me with guilt
The only souvenir you bring
I’m with him and you’re a secret treasure
He’s devotion, you’re a guilty pleasure
I’m with him and this is real life, honey
Guess the joke’s no longer funny
I’m with him until the death do us part
But it doesn’t do for this hungry heart
I’m with him, but in my frantic head
You always come and say
Would you run away
Would you run away with me
Would you run away
Would you run away
One love is enough
That’s all you ever get
Least that’s what they tell you
Still, i can’t forget
Eyes like burning ashes
Till the sunlight flashes
Can’t recall what i’ve been taught
Captivated by the thunderstorm
In which i’m caught
I’m with him and you’re a secret treasure
He’s devotion, you’re a guilty pleasure
I’m with him and this is real life, honey
Guess the joke’s no longer funny
I’m with him until the death do us part
But it doesn’t do for this hungry heart
I’m with him, but in my frantic head
You always come and say
Would you run away
Would you run away with me

Macro Mondays Guilty Pleasure Theme
I like sitting in a cafe with a cup of tea listening to the muffled voices around me.
At Newport Wetlands Centre cafe there are wall to wall windows that overlook a lake with many visiting birds.

For Macro Mondays'theme of the week.
I feel a bit guilty when I spend so much time looking through my lenses, playing with gadgets like this glass ball on the photo and spending another great amount of time in front of my computer, processing or looking at my contacts photos. But a pleasure it is, that's for sure.
I spend quite a large part of my life choosing, testing and repairing photographic equipment. It takes me much more time than creating pictures..
Once I unwittingly overheard a conversation of men drinking alcohol on the river bank.
They talked about fishing and choosing equipment for this.
One of them had a heavy box of various fishing gear. He showed them with pride, laid out and sorted out ... spinners, wobblers, fishing lines, hooks ...
And the other could boast of nothing but a shovel.
But I remember his words well:
".. there are men's magazines about women,
But sometimes it's just a woman.."
After that He dug up worms and went to fish..)
Nice weather and great photos this weekend for all of us
And let the pleasure of the process does not replace the result for us ! ) ) )
