I applied a Lightroom preset (Holgamania 1942) to this and tweaked it a bit to get this effect. I really liked the effect but maybe it is a bit overdone? Too grainy?

After I dyed my daisies, I decided to press some in a book to preserve them. This is one of them and it was so fragile that I should have not have clipped it because it sadly lost some petals after I removed it.

This dancing couple is enclosed in a bottle with two layers of glass. The couple dances to the Anniversary Song. I inherited it from my grandparents and can still remember winding this up and being mesmerized by it as a young girl it still has the same power over me. I rarely wind it anymore because I don't want to break it, today I did and it brought tears to my eyes.
Happy Macro Monday, good memories.

I learned how to make soft boiled eggs recently and have fallen in love with them. Such a great experience to eat them.

Last night I had to tow my truck to the repair shop with our jeep. My husband and daughter were in the truck and I was driving the jeep with great apprehension and angst. We were communicating over the cell phones and at a critical point were disconnected. I was somehow able to keep it together to make a turn right after a freeway exit without any direction from my husband. I was shaking the entire time worrying that I was going to either destroy the jeep or get my husband and daughter in a bad situation. Happily we all made it safely. We were driving slowly so these little turtles (they are only 1 inch long) represent us last night.
