🌸 As we head full-on into Spring in the northern hemisphere (despite what the weather outside might be telling me), it makes me think of these lotus flowers from ancient Egypt that I photographed for Manchester Museum's 'To Have and To Heal' project in 2021.
The flowers were found on the chest of a 22nd Dynasty woman called Perenbast, a singer of the god Amun in ancient Thebes.

🏺A tiny pot found during John Garstang's excavations at the ancient site of Koshtamna in Sudan, seemingly plain until you realise all those marks in the surface were made by straw inclusions in the clay. It's details like that that make me happy ...
Several thousand years old and measuring only 8 cm, I photographed this for the Garstang Museum of Archaeology's 'Before Egypt' exhibition back in 2019. Photo © me.

Bronze statuette (11.4 cm) of Harpocrates (Hor-pa-khered, 'Horus the Child'), the personification of the reborn morning sun. He's easily recognised by his crown, his 'sidelock of youth' hairstyle, his finger held to his mouth, and ... his complete butt-nakededness.
Unprovenanced, now in the collection at the Garstang Museum of Archaeology. Photo © me.

Amulet of the Egyptian god Thoth (or Djehuty, to call him by his actual Egyptian name) in his form as a seated baboon, patron deity of scribes.
The crescent and full moon on his head reflect his lunar connection.
Dating from around the New Kingdom, the amulet is only 5.5 cm tall, and is in the collection at Manchester Museum.

Osiris on his throne in the Hall of Judgement. Detail, just a few cm tall, from a Saite Period Book of the Dead at the Garstang Museum of Archaeology. The papyrus had broken where it was rolled up, and the fragments had slipped inside the glass, so I realigned them in Photoshop. Photo © me.
I wrote an article a while back about how I go about realigning fragments of papyri post photography: https://tetisheri.co.uk/repairing-papyri-photoshop/

Carnelian bead from Egypt carved into the shape of a hyena's head, with that distinctive ridge of fur on its neck. Unprovenanced, sadly, but now in the collection at the Garstang Museum of Archaeology.
Oh, one other thing ... it's literally a centimetre big ... 🤯🔬
This is actually a composite image made from 111 photos, using focus stacking and exposure bracketing. Photographed in 2002 for my #TinyEgypt project. Photo © me.

I do love a Predynastic red-and-buff decorated pot like this. The painted decoration depicts people on a boat, with a standard in the centre. This early Egyptian art is so full of character.

Woodstock Dreams in the Hall of Bones
Two visitors to the Natural History Museum in London admire the huge skeleton in the main hall.
The Natural History Museum’s most famous skeleton used to be “Dippy,” a diplodocus that dominated that main hall for 112 years. In 2017, it was replaced with a blue whale skeleton (which is what you see here). Dippy wasn’t actually a real skeleton though; it was a composite cast made from plaster and steel. The irony? For over a century, visitors thought they were seeing an actual dinosaur when they were really looking at a rather elaborate replica.

That first day back after new year is always going to be one for catching up with stuff, but I did manage to fit in putting the raw images of this amulet through the focus stacking software 😊
It's one of the amulets I photographed at Manchester Museum in early December for Tiny Egypt and depicts the god Shu - the air - with his arms up to support the sky.
