Macro Mondays - Weathered and worn

a nice week to everyone

Thank you for watching - HMM

Make compassion the cotton, contentment the thread,

modesty the knot and thruth the twist.

This is the sacred thread of the soul;

if you have it, then go ahead and put it on me.

A still-life shot of a variety of old wooden spools with thread.

Developed with Darktable 3.6.0.

Just a small collection of my wife's embroidery threads.

Thread the needle, something that seems to get more difficult with each passing year. It was miserable outside so I decided to shoot a little macro inside.

I found this great tutorial to make a light bulb in Blender.

Unfortunately, the bulb in the tutorial does not have a screw thread, so I spent the better part of yesterday afternoon going through one tutorial after another to model a screw. There were issues with each of them, were quite messy and required a fair bit of clean up of the geometry.

Later, then, I discovered that Blender 2.9 contains a Bolt add-on (you first have to enable it in the Preferences). Aha!, I though, that I can use for my light bulb. I added a bolt, deleted the vertices of the head of the bold, and then merged each vertex of the top of the bolt with each vertex of the bottom of the bulb. Done. Clean and quick.

Macro Monday theme of the week is “Needle and Thread”

This cloth is from my Xbox scarf...the zoomed detail on the threads are interesting.

When my husband's mom passed away several years ago, she left behind a tin with some sewing items. This thread is one of the items. I have never seen a spool of thread with two strands like this, so found it interesting. I wonder if it may have been used for embroidery. She never sewed much, but possibly her mother did.

I placed the thread on the back side of a small quilted wall hanging that I made...a bee printed shirting fabric was used for the backing.

Thanks for views, comments and favs :)

The threads that connect us to the world are our survival strategy. They are created and destroyed by us and by others. Fragile like the threads that the spider weaves, they are the measure of vulnerability, persistence, the entanglement of life. And in the poetic reflection on the self, the will, and the world, we will find this fragility in another perfect poem by Carlos Queiroz (1907-1949) Aranha, a masterpiece of Portuguese poetry.

The Macro Monday theme for 1/30 is screw. This choice fits the three parameters of the theme for MM. It also has garnered the most views and faves. I like the other three for totally different reasons, so I think I’ll dither for a bit before choosing.

Btb, I had an incredibly difficult time getting any of these to post. I finally discovered a work around but I’m hoping that my iPhone and Flickr app learn how to play nicely together again— SOON

HTT!

This petal was caught on a single spider web thread and was blowing in the wind.

This was a little bonus. During the latter part of our descent from Wild Boar Fell the whine of a pair of 158 units could be heard making their way uphill towards the nearby summit of His Gill. 158 870 and 158 794 form the 2H93 Carlisle to Leeds service.
