The Macro Mondays year started with cotton and I thought it would be good to finish with it.

This particular image took me 1.5 hours to complete. It was very tedious to do. I made the shot mono and then with a layer mask revealed certain spools of thread. I am very pleased with the outcome and hope you like this image.
Happy Slider Sunday
Always one to follow a thread, or a train of thought and after my "From train" up load of the car and the bridge, upon arrival at WBQ, i realized this train was running 180+ mins late, which in turn lead to a rethink, i decided to head back to Earlestown ( not far ) get in the car and drive to here, again not far, with a shot in mind, but also with the opportunity of a practice shot before hand, albeit on a South bound pair of Skoda's,but practice is practice,
Ok, it is far from perfect, but a reasonable attempt, from which i learned a lot, which was the name of the game.
After reasonable pleasure from "Girl on a Bike, i thought i would try a subject with a lot more mass and speed,
With hind sight, i would move further left, and maybe take some steps to stand on, the inside of the drivers door frame was stable, but not high enough, to clear the trees left. and the stable building right. hence the crop.
Oh and possibly on a dry day.........
I decided to post this as a less “faded” companion to my previous image, Shadow to my Light. This photo was taken in my neighborhood, on one of those winter days when the weather is cloudy and dreary all day and then the sky suddenly lightens along the horizon and the sun makes an appearance just in time to illuminate a beautiful afternoon sunset.
These unexpected sunsets, in a time of year marked by long nights and skies seemingly perpetually arrayed in endless shades of gray, always spark a sense of joy for me. And I can feel a lightness rising in my heart as I watch the sun determinedly burn its way through the clouds and thread the sky with ribbons of light and color in a triumphant celebration of victory over winter’s gloom.

Happy Sliders Sunday!
I used a brightly colored pink and blue fabric as the background for the needle/thread. In post I added some HDR and a Ribbet filter called Panography-ish, then added a drop-shadow frame.
The macro mondays group’s theme for 3/16 is needle and thread; and this is one of the possibilities. I am still learning about macro on the iPhone but I do like its potential......... check out the set-up shot in the first comment box
this was not an easy theme. When I tried the needle against the sequined backdrop it was very tricky to focus.
For Macro Mondays - Needle and Thread
The needle of a handheld sewing machine. I decided to do a few stitches.
Happy Macro Monday!

Wish you a nice weekend ahead and stay healthy!
I found this picture I took a week or so ago in a folder I don't use and realized I never edited or posted it. Since the bloomers are so darn cute, I couldn't just ignore it and worked on it this morning to share it with you. I just love.............

"Ttéia 1,C" by Lygia Pape - The Ttéias are constructed by the geometric installation of silver or gold-coloured threads in a space, either from the floor to the ceiling.
The word ‘ttéia’, which Pape created, is an elision of the Portuguese word for ‘web’ and ‘teteia’, a colloquial word for a graceful and delicate person or thing.

What about a bit of orange ?
The body of the nudibranch is white. They have very long yellow /orange cerata and extremely long rhinophores. It feeds on hydrozoa polyps.

You know the words "once upon a time"
Make you listen, there's a reason
When you dream there's a chance you'll find
A little laughter, or happy ever after
You're a harmony to the melody
That's echoing inside my head
A single voice
: Single voice
Above the noise
And like a common thread
Hmm, you're pulling me
When I hear my favorite song
I know that we belong
Oh, you are the music in me
Yeah, it's living in all of us
And it's brought us here because
Because you are the music in me
Na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na
You are the music in me
It's like I knew you before we met
Can't explain it
There's no name for it
I sang you words I've never said
And it was easy
Because you see the real me
As I am you understand
And that's more than I've ever known
To hear your voice
Hear your voice
Above the noise
And I know that I'm alone
Oh, you're singing to me
Ooh, yeah
When I hear my favorite song
I know that we belong
You are the music in me
It's living in all of us
And it's brought us here because
Because you are the music in me
Together we're gonna sing, yeah
We got the power to say what we feel
Troy: Connected and real
Can't keep it all inside, oh yeah
Troy: Ooh, yeah
It's brought us here because
You are the music in me
Hello my Flickr friends!!!
Today is Monday which is a red day at color My World daily Group. The theme for Macro Mondays is: thread and needle.
It is very crazy here in Montreal, right now… Schools are closed for 2 weeks, everybody who can is working from home, people over 70 are asked to stay home and avoid social contacts… Toilet paper situation (I know everyone wants an update on this VERY, VERY important subject) seems to be better… People got their common sense back…We will see what is next. Frankly I was (and I still am) super preoccupied by this COVID19 hysteria and I hope it will get better in the next few days…
I hope you are all healthy and safe !! I wish you an amazing beginning of the week !!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts / positive vibes!! It is truly appreciated! I sincerely hope everyone is all right and you all have everything you need to survive this with a smile! Have a great day and see you soon!!
