Macro Monday's theme: Wallet

Nowadays everyone has a wallet, but in the past it was different.

A money bag was seen as poor, not something for ladies and gentlemen.

Ladies and gentlemen did not do their business via the money bag.

The oldest known wallet was found with Otzi the Iceman who lived around 3000 years before Christ.

A small leather hip bag was found with him.

“Someone stole my wallet last week. The guy called me up and he was mad at me. He was like "you gotta get your finances together. You got no cash; your credit cards are maxed out. You don’t even have minutes on your calling card. I had to use my card to call you.'” ~ Mike Birbiglia

I have this old coin purse in which I store a few Canadian coins left over from the last of many fishing trips to a lake near Sudbury. Some of my fondest memories of my father are from those trips. Thank you Canada. The image is about 70mm across. HMM and thanks for any views, faves and comments.

Looks like it is time I bought a new wallet. Photographed in the back pocket of a pair of trousers.

The length of the part of the wallet shown here is 62mm.

Happy Macro Monday!

Sunset on 26-October. The view towards Wong Wiang Yai, lit. the "big [traffic] circle". Bangkok sunsets can be madly fantastic, partly due to scattering caused by poor air quality.

.

The 64m high Buddha statue visible in the distance a few km away was built since approx 2019 and completed around 2021. On 2 occasions every year the sun passes right behind in this view. I've been here previously in Feb-2023, and in July 2020 i also published a shot of the Buddha itself when it was still under construction, please feel free to check my Bangkok album.

.

At present the Buddha's head is surrounded by scaffolding with a standard green plastic sheeting as cover. During day time it obscures the shape of the sculpture, but with the setting sun directly behind it adds a remarkable quality.

.

Interestingly, the dictionary shows the phrase 'Wong Wiang' could also mean "compass", but that might imply a meaning not intended at time of shooting; however, it did influence the processing. I couldn't help but think about how sometimes we seem to rush past so many things on our journey, with so many things getting ever more colourful and inventive in their attention (and wallet) grabbing attempts, but then, where is it all heading and leading to, is there an exit from the big circle or does it keep going round and round?

.

Anyhow, at the time of shooting I was aiming to do some more Bangkok cityscapes again and 'just' hoping to capture one of these intense sunsets in a great location, and hit very lucky indeed on that day :)

.

How do you think?

Plastic, Macro Mondays

Compared to my old wallet, my new wallet is "paper thin"

This will probably give me back pain, and it has ruined a few pairs of pants due to back pocket corrosion, but the sad thing is that I keep my money in my front pocket, and most of the stuff in the wallet is business cards, expired credit cards (neteller etc.), and receipts that have all the print worn off. . . I think I'll get a new wallet this week. . .

"Who is that?"

me: Duk Won

"Cute, is that your son?"

me: no

"Nephew or relative?"

me: no

"so who is it?"

me: It came with the wallet

"you are so werid"

Here is the bird wallet, this time I did 2 birds instead of 1 and changed the fabric.

So what do you think, 2 birds or 1? (see my other bird wallet for comparison if you like)

I purchased this little guy in St Petersburgh a few summers back. He lives in my wallet and (presumably) attracts money. (He must be eating it, too, because so far I haven't gotten any richer).
