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.
This will probably be my last urban shot for a while, I think I've got it out of my system whatever it was I was looking to do :D
Been a nice change, and there's something very cool about the angles and sharp lines of modern architecture against soft skies, I will be back.... but I think my heart is in getting my feet wet in waterfalls or trying to capture the morning mist :)
Looking forward to the autumn and winter now, although I love summer, for photography it's hard to capture anything interesting :) Bring me back my misty mornings and frosty ground :)
Glass ornament, water and sand.
Given that it was taken on my phone through the shop window, it came out alright!!
Photo taken for the "Macro Mondays" theme "Sphere".
A selection of colourful translucent banded agate beads, with coloured transmission shadows.
Each bead is 8 mm in diameter.
Snapped this shot of a Laughing Gull riding the wind over our heads in Rodanthe, NC. I was amused to find that the backlight from the overcast sky created an X-Ray like effect on the gull’s trailing wing and tail feathers, making the overlapping pattern of the layered feathers visible.
Not all sunsets are bright orange, red ones. The day had been hot but high cloud rolled in during the afternoon, leading to a cooler, greyer sunset with only a touch of colour. But the exposed sand and low tide at the Colonnades beach made for some muted translucent colours . With the FFM.
A Flickr Friday submission on the topic "Translucent". Three leaves from a Blueberry Ash tree at different stages of development.
Translucent forms
that hold me spellbound
nothing there but emptiness
yet in that form I see so much
imagination set free to play
meaning not yet focused.
Our woodpeckers and squirrels don't seem to like the acorns on these deciduous acorn trees, they largely ignore them, and fight over the acorns on the evergreen California live oaks. I'm assuming they are not indigenous.
I know there's an acorn-y pun in there somewhere, but just can't think of it, right now!

I liked the way the light from a south window cast a colored shadow through the translucent tip of the frame.
