You are my golden thread ♥
We don't accomplish anything in this life alone...and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry of one's life and all the weavings of individual threads from one to another that creates something.
Sandra Day O'Connor

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.

It's been such a lovely morning, with sunshine highlighting the raindrops left from the weekend's storms. At times like this it's easy to go into the garden and lose myself in trying to capture on camera the beautiful details I can see around me.
Red Threads is a macro photograph of a rose. It is a floral portrait of the Biblical heroine Rahab. This photo is a part of the 'Botanical Beauty' exhibition in Jerusalem.

Puffins were on the ledge directly below one of the viewing stations - close enough for shots but difficult to get an angle. I leaned out and over, trying not to give in to vertigo and waiting for gusts to blow vegetation out of my shot!

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 :)

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated.
Canvases or gauzes were used primarily for religious and magical purposes. They were made for covering the head of the dead in the form of a headdresses. According to the beliefs of the time, the threads on these fabrics had to be spun in the form of an "S" in an anticlockwise direction. This thread, which had a magical character, was called lloque and, according to legend, the garments were infused with supernatural powers and served as protection in the afterlife.

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.

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
