FlickrFriday Theme : translucent

Macro Mondays theme of 'Translucent'

A Flickr Friday submission on the topic "Translucent". Three leaves from a Blueberry Ash tree at different stages of development.

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 was originally trying this out for the next Macro Mondays group theme, Translucent, but then I realised I'd made a rookie mistake.

 

The main subject is a translucent milk glass button. It's standing in front of a Victorian bottle and a fluted glass perfume bottle, both of which are translucent. For good measure, they're all on top of a sheet of opaque perspex, which is itself (you've guessed it) translucent. I was feeling pleased with myself until I realised that the button had two things between it and the light ... so it didn't actually look translucent at all. Oops! Still, waste not, want not, as my mother used to say. :)

 

Apologies for being behind with commenting. Flickr was playing up so much yesterday that I gave up on it. I'll catch up tomorrow!

Glass ornament, water and sand.

Given that it was taken on my phone through the shop window, it came out alright!!

With the Sun falling on the San Fransisco Bay, and this Seagull's flight into it's light, helped me appreciate in my heart, that we live in a very special place! Of all the things I saw out in the world today that dissappointed me, because that's how alot of people are these days, this Sundown helped me let it go; And made me the Freebird!

Macro Mondays : "Found in the kitchen"

Saturn’s rings are perhaps the most recognized feature of any world in our solar system. Cassini spent more than a decade examining them more closely than any spacecraft before it.

 

The rings are made mostly of particles of water ice that range in size from smaller than a grain of sand to as large as mountains. The ring system extends up to 175,000 miles (282,000 kilometers) from the planet, but for all their immense width, the rings are razor-thin, about 30 feet (10 meters) thick in most places.

 

From the right angle you can see straight through the rings, as in this natural-color view that looks from south to north. Cassini obtained the images that comprise this mosaic on April 25, 2007, at a distance of approximately 450,000 miles (725,000 kilometers) from Saturn. The Cassini spacecraft ended its mission on Sept. 15, 2017.

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!!

American beech leaves in autumn make a lovely transition from green though yellow before settling on this orangey brown, sometimes staying on the trees' lower branches throughout most of the winter.

 

...through translucent, etched glass.

A bit early for Halloween, but it was the best I could find. HMM!!
