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!

Not many orange poppies in the garden this year but did find a few...thought I would change up the look this time.

I cropped the heck out of this shot to highlight the fascinating wing translucency.

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.

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.

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 :)

I couldn't find the name of this aquatic plant, if anyone could tell...
