Macro Monday at Lisa’s Chaos and The Daily Focal Point Challenge
Posted by Dr. Cason on Monday, November 24th, 2008
Today I combined Lisa’s
With Cabe’s challenge at The Daily Focal Point. Cabe asked that we take a pic of anything we liked. This is of a little frog instrument I got in Bali. I bought it for my son and loved the dark rich rustic tones of it. I tend to like things with texture and character if you haven’t noticed.

Mellion 25 Nov 2008 at 1:23 am 4Beautiful! I would have liked to see the whole thing as well as the macro! I have a little cricket musical instrument that I bought for my granddaughter to play with … perhaps I’ll photograph IT for next week!

kathleenon 25 Nov 2008 at 2:25 am 6I like this too. What amazes me is the time and the beautiful wood someone used to create this little instrument. I think you love Guam and Bali because of the love of crafts these people possess. I find it so amazing.

Dr. Casonon 25 Nov 2008 at 8:42 am 8Kyla- Me too. The rougher the better.
June-
Jaden- There was a newer more colorful looking one. But it wasn’t as cool.
Melli- I’ll post it for you!
Nikki- Try to get up close and see what your lens will do.
Kathleen- I do have an affinity for the art. It’s so lovely.
Tracey- Not as good as those marbles! Everyone go look at the reflective marbles. So pretty!
Kathleenon 25 Nov 2008 at 1:08 pm 9Sheila – I do as well (have an affinity for art). My son, Nick, has a band director’s office decorated with all sorts of art relating to trumpets and music I collected for him through the years. My favorite is this wonderful handmade trumpet player guy who looks like a jazz player. I purchased this at the Center for Southern Folklore in Memphis, and this artist never repeats her designs – so he is one of a kind. Next time I am in Texas I will have to take a good picture of him for you to see. I could see this same type of art being done in Bali.
Here is their website for those that might like to see some of the art sold there.

Dr. Casonon 25 Nov 2008 at 3:34 pm 10Kathleen- So cool. I love the folklore. It has such a rich history.
Kathleenon 26 Nov 2008 at 2:13 am 11Sheila – Also check out the last post I put on my blog about one of the folk singers I met and heard at the Center for Southern Folklore. I put a link so you can also hear some of her songs about the South. Very interesting music with wonderful messages in it.
I love to go to this place when I have a chance.
