sunshine-illuminated leaf- a telephoto shot from below. Termites/ants have been there before and systematically perforated the leaf's surface
During the trip to Madeira I also visited the Madeira Banana Museum BAM. The banana leaf is large, flexible and waterproof. However, on Madeira they are also often frayed due to the strong winds. When standing under them they surely look like a roof above your head.
This macro shot was taken with a Nikkor 18-200mm VR lens coupled with a Quantaray + 3 magnifying filter. I obtained the magnifying filter from the Ritz/Wolf camera website for around $25.
The vibration reduction (VR) eliminates most of the shake during a handheld shot and the magnifying filter gives a much closer view of the cell structure.....
One caveat - the magnifying filter has a very limited depth of field and can be tricky when trying to get the correct focal point. I had to take a half dozen shots to get one that worked.

Sycamore Leaf (maybe, correct me if I'm wrong). Taken one morning down by the River Ericht, Blairgowrie, Perthshire, Scotland. Taken on Sony Xperia Z3 Compact.
Refold/redesign of Linnaeus' Leaf Insect. Antennae were made to more realistic length, tarsi were lengthened, pretarsal bifurcation added. The back still needs some work, but I think it's moving in a more realistic direction. Takes 3x longer to fold now. ;)
