Macro Digital Photography

I love Macro Photography. I took the above photo with my smart phone. It’s a photo of the zipper on my favorite purse. I did do a little editing with the Snapseed editing app I keep on my iPhone. It is one of those unplanned photographs that I end up liking more than the planned ones I’ve taken.
A Foggy and Damp California Morning

Foggy and damp definitely described the view out of the front window this morning. We could barely see any of the neighborhood houses. I went into our family room and turned on the electric fireplace. You can see it below. I love the way it cozies up the room.

Next I went to the kitchen to make my morning cup of coffee, in my snowman mug.
Before long, the sun broke through and I was out in the garden, checking on my plants. Not long ago I showed you my flowering Thanksgiving cactus. Well, now it’s the day before Christmas, and my Christmas Cactus is very close to blooming. You can see it below.

It always amazes me to see how these plants know exactly what to do. I ‘m keeping the Christmas Cactus inside for a few days, so we can enjoy the beautiful color up close.
