My origami calendar

I folded the mother duck out of trace paper around the time I saw ducklings on the way to work. I can’t remember how big the paper was; I believe 13×13mm. The two little ducklings in the center were folded from 6×6mm pieces of trace paper while the little one at the back was folded from a 5×5mm piece of trace paper.

I know mother duck is just behind the 4cm mark, but the duckling at the back is in front of the 1cm mark, hence the duck family is a 3cm spread ^ _ ^

Taken with an Olympus FE-220 (on super macro mode) on top of a box in my room.

New version added August 21, 2008:

It looks great on a card!

And makes a nice decoration for your office!

You should try with green tea; it’ll be more traditional ;)

Amazing work. I don’t know how you do it so intrique are the details.
Thank you. I wish I wasn’t in a stressed state now, then I could’ve made this better and take more time on it. I had a great urge to do it anyhow; and I needed a break.

Morning Mui-Ling – if this is the version you’re not so happy with, looking forward to the next version….actually I’m pretty sure I like it the way it is, but I know how it feels when something isn’t quite the way you want it.
I’m glad you like it as it is. It is certainly very difficult to get that ideal look, and I’m not the best photographer – and even if I do a newer one that I like, well I don’t know if others would feel the same. Thanks for the fav :D

Oh, i think it’s wonderful, wonderful Mui-Ling…knowing the story behind the ducks n all….
I have such affection for you and all that you do….i love this little duck family,
absolutely sweet and adorable!
Thanks Karin! It’s great that you’ve been up to date with my duckling adventures; I think knowing about those makes this more enjoyable.
