The topic for Macro Mondays is Shadow Play,. I have no idea what this shriveled up thing is, but it's about 3/4 inch across, and all those wrinkles help nicely with the shadow play. To light it, I laid a small flashlight (torch) on the table beside it, in order to create such harsh shadows.
Shadow is going out more and more. This morning he saw Maggie on top of my desk and was quite fascinated by her being up there. He looked and looked and finally decided the chair would be the best way to get up to join her. He touched the chair and it moved - and he got scared and ran back to his room!
Another effort in color, which might be a bit better trying to capture color changes with the start of the golden hour. Focus with the slow speed Portra makes the background a bit soft, but I wanted the brick lines and crossing shadow to be in focus. I really like Porta 160 so much better than the 400 version because of the grain structure and the color palatte of the former, but there's no free lunch.

I go back in my mind to this cold and oh so quiet November morning four years ago thanking God for giving Sandi and myself that day... I must recognize Duffy Holiday for taking us to this, the sacred land of his ancestors, for it was a gift to us of immeasurable value...

It's been quite a strange month november, also for Lilli. She's so sensitive and tends to suffer when we're all stressed and worried. But her ability to go ahead always surprises me.
