Border work is always a nice thing to do ☺️

The corner of a map showing a torn parchment in progress and an ornate frieze with stylized peacock feathered pattern in red blue and gold. There’s also a rugged compass rose at the bottom of the map embedded in the ornate border.

It’s always nice to finish a project with the compass rose. Should do it more often.

A wide shot captures a large, mosaic-tiled fish sculpture on a paved area featuring a compass rose design. The sky is blue with scattered clouds.

Links to sites of wonderful #maps including OS maps (I foresee a break from ebooks) remind me of yesterday's tussle with the car's satnav. Among its annoyances is resetting to direction of travel at the top, ensuring that you can't quickly check you're going the right way. I need m'compass points! I suppose the satnav's method works for those who happily follow the directions... even when they lead into a ditch.
But it dulls awareness.
Is it propagating ignorance of orientation?

It's been a while since I've been able to share a WIP and here's an almost finished map but it feels good to share it anyways 😊 #cartography #map #mapmaking #mapmaker #rpg #ttrpg #jdr #dnd #fantasy #fantasymap #compass #compassrose #windrose

A world map with ice caps. Three continents in the western part, one in the middle and a huge one in the eastern part. The biomesarevaried. The compass rose is ornate and shows inserts of lapis lazuli and triangular shaped friezes. Light seems to be coming from the rose engravings.

Why Is North Up?

“Why is north up? Has north always been up? What used to be up before north was up? Does it matter if a direction other than north is up? And have you ever been on a year five geography trip where you got lost in the woods and wet yourself in front of Mr. Dugdale?..”
“… ‘orientated’ means ‘east at the top’, hence the term ‘Orient’… ”
