When Jientje visited from Belgium she brought this sweet little angel to live with me.
Such a sweet little face.
Hope you all had a wonderful, extended weekend, enjoying these first few days of the new year. :0)
Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. Don’t forget to visit each other.

Lovely Angel Lisa!!
Jay said,
Wow, I can’t believe I’m first in the linky list!
Love the little angel. He has a slightly old-fashioned look to him, very European! What a great gift!
Maia said,
Beautiful gift and a great macro of this little angel.Is that a palette in his hand?
Trish said,
Great picture to start off the new year!
Kath said,
What a wonderful little face. I am so happy to be back on schedule and that I actually figured out what day it is! I hope you had a wonderful holiday, Lisa!

These are amazing!
kaye said,
you are doubly blessed. 1) to meet jientje in person and 2) to have this lovely little angel as a memento.

Promise not to laugh. When I saw the first photo, the first thing that jumped into my head was Howdy Doody. Go figure. I suppose I thought I saw freckles. Of course the angel isn’t Howdy Doody — much nicer and as always your close in photos are great.

ROFL!! GREAT MINDS think alike!! My macro Monday is about the ornament YOU sent ME! LOL!! What are the odds eh? Or, maybe you’ve been reading my mind!
I’ve never seen that angel look so good. I just know she’s happy with you!!

Maybe will have time to do the marco today.
Misty Dawn said,
Oh, she’s very beautiful! I too received a very beautiful ornament… I know the holidays are over, but I still haven’t made my post about it – I need to get myself in gear! LOL
Pamela said,
a rather sultry face for an angel —- ha.
dutchbaby said,
Beautifully carved angel!
Lisa said,
Very cool angel! Love the angles on it and how the white background makes it look like a cutout in that first shot.
killlashandra said,
Very nice close ups! Makes me wish I had a real camera that could have different lens.
Quilly said,
What an angelic shot! (Sorry, couldn’t resist.)
I like the details that came out in this macro. The “creation” dust that clings to the painted and fired angel is something likely overlooked by the naked eye, but seems somehow symbolic under the scrutiny of the camera.
Rosidah Abidin said,
I just saw your lovely gift to Jientje on her blog… and now this beautiful angel. I really love great blogging friendships like this. Wonderful!
Michelle said,
I am so excited about my first photography event and it’s macro which is my favorite. I hope you don’t mind but most of my photos are of food in one shape or another.
