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 Mr Linky. Don’t forget to visit each other. 
Travel Scrabble helps Haden and I make it through many hours of riding.
And my sweet little Blackberry (with crappy camera!) helps me stay in touch with everyone across the miles.

Your ability to get so much DOF in a macro always astonishes me. I have much to learn in that way yet.
I’m back again after a too-short long weekend. That did not produce my Macro Monday for this week. It came from a different beach in a different year.
How’s Dennis doing? Better I hope!

Pumpkin time! Well, not really pumpkins. YET. My garden is looking good. Happy Macro Monday. Travel Scrabble is one of the best purchases we ever made.

I like these very much. A Blackberry might take the sting of intermittent Internet access–or sometimes none at all–while on vacation. Your photo has me thinking. My life might be less of a macrocosmic scrabble with sucha toy!

I love the first one with that spot of light!
Nice angles on all of these.

I have never seen a scrabble board like that, it must be a newer version! But I loooove scrabble, I’m an addict!

Scrabble used to be my family favorite pass time, but now with the 2 sons not having much time at home, it’s just collecting dust at home!

I love scrabble and I love your travel scrabble pictures! Thanks for hosting this.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery for Dennis.

Ah, Scrabble. I love that game. I can’t imagine using a real board again — too much computer Scrabble. Words are fun and your images of the scrabble board are kind of electric.

I have that same Travel Scrabble. Looks like it was a good game – with a very nice flow.
‘Zesty’ reminded me a George Carlin stand up joke on advertising words. Whoever who played that word would have scored big!

I remember playing scrabble alot as a kid…my aunt had one of those little fold up ones for the beach! I haven’t played in years….I, too, am getting rather used to the computer games!! I couldn’t be without my little Palm Centro which keeps me in touch wirelessly wherever I happen to be! Love this set of pics!! Hope Dennis is feeling better!!

Very artistic angles on those scrabble boards! Wow does that game bring back many hours of fond mixed with frustrating memories! Definitely a game in the legend department! And love the blackberry shot too!
Monica said,
The scrabble shots are my favorite in how you approached them with the different angles. Nicely done.

Yes, Scrabble! The game of my childhood. My mom played a mean defensive game and taught me much strategy. And a good vocabulary doesn’t hurt! Thanks for the closeup view of the beloved wooden tiles.
