Red String of Fate

Thank you Irene. Folding wasn’t too hard since these hearts are bigger than most of my creations, but getting everything in the right position was; string is not easy to work with; and if I wan’t to adjust it’s position while delicate paper hearts are sitting on top of it, I very likely lose their positions.

I’m glad you do. I started out using natural light and taking several shots of the subjects at different positions; none which I were satisfied with yet at the time; then it was getting dark so I turned on my lamp which made the image more yellowing; but it works better this way.

Hey Red! So nice to see you here. Thanks for the fav; the colour suits you :o)

Well it’s very late here so I’m heading of to bed now.

You are so sweet my friend; thank you :D

Thank you so much Enivea!

Thank you BlueKnot. I’m really glad you took notice of that arrow; it took a lot of effort to position it in the way to get the symbols in there meanwhile giving it a decent composition; and with the thread going through one end of the needle there is only so much on that end that could come out. There was also all the difficulty with positioning such flimsy objects, and as mentioned in the description, magnetic attration between the needle and my tweezers.

Then start pulling; NOW :-P

Thank you very much!

You are very into oriental culture aren’t you Karin ;) Seeing this at first, aside from the origami, people may not be aware of the asian influence behind it, but there cerainly are a lot of things in western culture right now which have been adopted from asian influence, so you are right when you say these myths are brought into our daily lives. So gald you enjoy this Karin, hope you are well!

Oh wow, thank you!

Thank you very much!

Many Thanks Francis!

Thank you very much! For the comment and the fav!

oh wow, thank you!

Thank you very much Kerryn! And thank you for the fav :)

Thanks again :)

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much Rory! I remember in the past you always liked 3cm Family Swim the best. It is generally one of my most popular pieces, and this one is too. Right now 3cm Family swim still has more favs, but one must take into account that it has been up longer; and it is one of the featured pieces in my profile page. I had swapped the February image in my calendar for this Red String piece after I created it; and since then there have been people telling me that February was their favourite. But they are both very different I guess.
