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 :)
Normally the walkway alongside the Union Canal is a great spot for some people watching photos, but with it being dark so early now at this time of year, I switched to longer exposures, and the people all become translucent, blurred phantasms, ghosting through the world
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.
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.
For the macromondays theme of translucent for 7/20. This is a “westher predictor” - blue of course! You are seeing the liquid and crystals and its reflection in a black glass mirror like surface. Size verifcation later if i decide to use it.
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.
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.
