Like thread through a needle, the westbound RIO GRANDE ZEPHYR passes through Tunnel 29 just east of Cliff siding, west of Denver, on June 30, 1979.

For 'Macro Mondays' theme of 'Needle and Thread'.

Went into the basket that contains all sorts of bits and pieces that I think might be useful for a photograph, but invariable are not. However, there was a sparkling piece of ribbon that had been used to wrap a present. Of course, it was far too wide to go through an eye except one for a Giant's needle!

Out came the scissors and I cut a thin strip which I threaded through this darning needle - that was fun because the strip began to unravel, most went through but not all.

The needle was stuck in a polystyrene block to hold it steady and lit with a couple of lights, nothing special. To add a little colour I waved a piece of red ribbon in the background.

As for focus and depth of field .......................... !

My second Twirl attempt, they are fun. And seeing as we are not allowed outside I have far too much time doing nothing.

:-)

I used my photo below in the first comment to create this Twirl.

Happy Sliders Sunday, processed to the max.

Took this photo in Greece, no idea what it is called, anyone know? Thanks

Thanks to Mark I now know this is a Thread Lacewing

Threads through Revelation is a spectacular display of textile art, showing many images from the book of Revelation, the last book in the Bible.

I guess they might only be visible on a large screen, but there are tiny threads attached to this plant, left by spiders as they travel from flower to flower. I'm afraid I don't know the name of the plant, but at least it's not Helenium. I'm conscious that I'm a bit obsessed with Helenium at the moment, so I thought I'd better post something different today. :)

Taken with my Lensbaby Velvet 56mm.

The shallow DOF here allowed for the focus to be right where the thread is through the hole. Fun with the macro lens.

The Moirai or Fates were three sister deities, incarnations of destiny and life. Their names were Clotho, the one who spins the thread of life; Lachesis, she who draws the lots and determines how long one lives, by measuring the thread of life; and Atropos, the inevitable, she who chose how someone dies by cutting the thread of life with her shears. They were often described as being ugly and old women, stern and severe. Three days after a child was born, it was thought that the Moirai would visit the house to determine the child's fate and life. (www.greekmythology.com/Other_Gods/The_Fates/the_fates.html)

Handmade, mixed media: paper, glue, acrylic paint, permanent markers, metallic paint markers, sewing thread, polyacrylic sealer on stretched canvas.

Completed: 2018

Canvas: 8X10 inches; with frame, approximately 10X12

I have spent most of the last 2 years experimenting with mixed media. I have a ton of art supplies, some new, some decades old. I've been combining them any way that comes to mind.

With each new artwork, I add more ideas & notes to my sketchbook. I'm sure I will never have the time to use up all of my supplies, nor use every idea.

We are all beads strung together on the same thread of love.

A thread-waisted wasp. I could not find much information about this colorful insect. Quite striking with the bold orange and black pattern.

Macro Mondays: keyhole. Quite a challenge to find a keyhole that was a bit interesting. This is in an antique thread cabinet, and you can barely make out some of the old paint labeling. It was not possible to shine light through.
