Feliz viernes de música y fotografías!!! :)
Whew! this theme was tough! I don't do blur or even soft well at all. All that said, it was a fun theme, unless you ask my husband who offered to spin the coin for a bazillion failed shots (hey, he offered... :}}} ) This is a little super ball, about 1 inch in diameter.
There is a second photo that I published. You can click ahead once to see it, if you like.
Thanks for the views, faves and comments, they are sincerely appreciated.
Happy Macro Monday!

Veronica longifolia , Long-leaved Speedwell
Please view large for all the lovely detail!
This plant is attractive to bees, butterflies and/or birds
Slender, upright spires of white, pink and blue tubular flowers appear in summer above cream-edged, mid-green leaves.
This elegant speedwell shows a good resistance to mildew and will add vertical interest throughout a sunny border on well-drained soil.
If cut back after the flowers have faded, it may produce a second flush in late summer or early autumn.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

Some Happy Caturday poignancy - that group has, for tomorrow's theme, your cat's favorite place. I thought I'd take some pix here of Tikki on the old stub of a gateway which she uses as a scratching post, viewpoint and roof access.
Well, the siding guys came today, and indicated that the stub of a gateway would be better removed for sake of said siding (in part, why that bit is being replaced...) and, given that there is no use for it other than a cat perch, I'm having it removed. Luckily, Tikki has other favorite places, including my lap, where she is as I am typing this.

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo. Your faves and comments are greatly appreciated
I love a good forest in the early morning. You are more or less alone around dawn and with a bit of fog it can become quite spooky!
I can't wait for autum to kick in and give those trees that golden look!

The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" on the 27th of October is "spider and/or spiderweb". since it is the closest Friday to Halloween. As an arachnophobe this theme was not an easy one for me, for it is unusual for me to have anything spider themed in my possession. I don’t have spiders in either my miniatures or my Playmobil collection, nor do I think Royal Doulton make spider statues from fine china. Luckily for me, I have one spider item in my house that is not a real or preserved spider – neither of which I would knowingly or willingly have in the first place.
The spider I have chosen is a very striking example of Art Deco, and happens to appear on one of my favourite perfume bottles in my extensive collection. Only ten centimetres in height from tip to bottom, this is a Josef Schmidt crystal perfume bottle, was made in Czechoslovakia around 1930. Epitomising the clean and stylish lines of Art Deco, it has a clear prismbeveled stopper and a spider on web attributed to Turriet and Bardach etched into it. The web has been picked out in thin strips of black enamel. I can just picture this on some flapper’s highly polished dressing table, filled with some exotic French perfume surrounded by silver brushes and mirrors. Can’t you?
I do hope you like my choice of this week’s theme and that it makes you smile.

the macromonday theme for 5/20 is copper (bronze and brass are ok, too)...... "Bronze and brass are acceptable as is oxidized, tarnished or corroded metallic copper such as verdigris but copper-based chemicals such as copper sulfate or Schweizer's reagent are not."........ artistically this one might be the best but i think i'm going to go with the copper fly- oh, my
the whole narrative about the theme......

One of my favorite photos I've ever made. I frequently photographed the bees writhing amongst the stamens fallen in clumps on the petals of my Southern Magnolia's flowers. This little feller actually fell off the petal while clutching an armful of stamens as he fell, but of course quickly righted himself and flew back onto the petal. Just an awesome capture for me. For the flickr group, "Smile on Saturday," and this week's theme: Free Theme. Click on the photo twice to view it at maximum size.
The theme this week is 'Baubles' very festive :) Chickpea had to get in on this and he's up in the tree, wrapped in a giant (for him) santa hat. He's round and festive so could possibly pass as a bauble :) The other three are most definitely baubles lol.

March 9th is One Very Sad Year Away From my Darling Husband, Gerry's Death
As I will be travelling, Séan and I went to the Sarasota National Cemetery yesterday, which is the only time I have before I travel.
Strangely and eerily, there were no Sandhill Cranes to join us! It is the first time that I have been in the cemetery without their company.
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, and stay safe! ❤❤

Crazy Tuesday - theme of November 24th, 2020: Hobby
Juggling clubs is one of my hobbies I rather enjoy in summer time when you can go outside without freezing your hands, getting wet or cold (and without danger damaging your flat - indoors you can use soft balls instead) ;))
I also used to juggle with fire - but I haven't tried it for a long time now (the fire clubs / torches are buried somewhere deep down in the cellar)
These juggling clubs have a so called "European decoration": the iridescent coating covers only parts of the club - the middle of the corpus remains white (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juggling_club)
😄 HaPpY CrAzY Tuesday 😄 , everyone !!
