Flickr Friday: Thin

Taken at the windmills near the Chybucca junction on the A30. They have come out a little fainter than I would like but they were moving pretty fast - I drive past them every day though and the wind is rarely blowing in the right direction to get a shot - so I had to take the opportunity.

The edge of an art-glass bowl up against an opaque glass lamp. That "Dutch Angle" from a few weeks ago is seems to be coming in handy!

Macro Mondays - October 12, 2020

Theme for the week - "Translucent."

Image taken with my Huawei Mate 8 cell phone.

A photo of a Glad translucent food storage container lid placed in front of my laptop screen with one of my older fly images to enhance illumination and show the lids light diffusing properties.

This butterfly is extremely small, needed lots of patience to take a few shots.

Another incomprehensible iceberg in Lake Argentina in Los Glaciares National Park.

I've never seen such clear glacial ice -- especially illuminated with back light like this. On top of that I love the texture of this ice chipped like an ancient stone tool.

Here's a broader view of this iceberg.

I love the way the sun's rays came through the curtain.

I searched high and low, looked at photo examples on line to find something unique for Macros on Monday "Translucent" subjects. Wa-Laaa! right in front of me on my desktop I saw the alabaster former ashtray that I use for paper and binder clips.

The whole dish is 4 inches wide so it was easy to get the required macro but the first images looked like binders in a dark hole. I captured this image on a piece of glass with a speed light below that made the dish glow.

Happy Macro Monday everyone and thanks for your comments and favs.

Macro Monday - Translucent

I took this idea after seeing my pillowcases blowing in the wind on my washing line. I noticed that with the sun backlighting the material I could see the butterfly from the design on the underside of the pillowcase showing through to the topside!!
