360. Tomato-Centred Carrot Star

I met with some friends to work on a project - but before we got started we had a lenghty brunch, including these carrots and tomato:

277. Chives Blossom Star

Oh, dear. I don't remember the last time I cared so little about those star... It's probably because that's never been the case so far. But here goes...

Yesterday, I cut the blooming scapes of the chives on my balcony, intending to use them for a salad - but then I didn't get to make the salad, so I made a star instead (using some of the closed flowers as well):

 

Needless to say, I quite like their colour.

108. Paper Pop-Up Card

Here's a beautiful idea for a Christmas greeting card - and it's rather simple, too, once I managed to figure out which part has to fold where without making a complete mess of it:

53. Vertigo

Yesterday morning, I dug out my U2 CDs again and since then I've been listening to them non-stop. About one third of the time it's a neverending loop of a great live version of 'Vertigo' - and it doesn't feel like I'm going to get tired of it any time soon.^^

So here's my vertigo-inducing star (and while I could listen to the music for hours on end, I wouldn't want to look at this for more than 30 seconds...):


P.S.: This is the first computer-made star of the project.^^ (Spiral design by Akiyoshi Kitaoka)

41. Feather Star

Another beautiful day and another beautiful hiking trip with a lot of sunshine (though it's getting really cold now). Somewhere along the hillsides of the 'Hausberg' we found a bunch of beautiful feathers - sadly, it looked like some bird had suffered rather a lot...
I gathered the larger feathers and made a star out of them when I was back home (too windy outside):

In loving memory of the bird.

I have not yet been able to determine what kind of bird these feathers are from. Possibly a Jay (the Eurasian kind), and possibly a young one. But suggestions are welcome! :)
