and my translucent group:
This beautiful figurine is made from what appears to be either jade or glass, as it is translucent.
Strobist info: To make it glow, I put a Strobie 130 in a Rogue grid behind and to the right of the subject at 1 o'clock. The strobe, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N. I held a silver reflector disc in front of the figure in an attempt to shed a little more light there. As you can see the colors vary depending on the thickness of the material.
Other still life pictures that I've taken are in my Still LIfe set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157635247182331/
My glorious hollyhocks made it! - Thank You for getting them on EXPLORE - presently #308... must be quick to catch it.....
Nature rarer uses yellow
Than another hue;
Saves she all of that for sunsets,--
Prodigal of blue,
Spending scarlet like a woman,
Yellow she affords
Only scantly and selectly,
Like a lover's words.
(Emily Dickinson)
Taken for the Two Word Wednesdays group.
My translucent beauties really MUST be viewed on black and LARGE! Thank You, you won't regret it.

A Hover Fly licks the last of the pollen in late September.
The translucent wing really caught my attention right away.
Most of my macro shots are very heavy on the Aperture, around f/22+. This provides great depth and focus when you're close.
Lighting is always an issue when shooting with f/22+, but can be overcome with a simple flash extension like a small box (Kraft diner box) using foil to reflect light down on subject.
Hope somebody gives it a try if they've faced this problem before.
There sadly comes a day, when you just won't pay

Remember, we are all affecting the world every moment, whether we mean to or not. Our actions and states of mind matter, because we're so deeply interconnected with one another. Working on our own consciousness is the most important thing that we are doing at any moment, and being love is the supreme creative act.

Loved the wings on this bee. I find my problems with macro photography are (a) fighting the urge to crop the image or (b) moving in too close. I enjoy seeing pollinators doing what they do best: pollinating. Removing the flowers and focusing on the bee alone, while providing a cool image, isn't the whole story.
Worth a look in light box :)
A giant thank you to Jim (SARhounds) who put me on the right track for the plant ID!

A small group of shelf mushrooms on the Goodman Creek Trail, Oregon. Perhaps Pleurotus Ostreatus? If so, I should have chowed down!

Standing under these dogwood trees yesterday, I felt like I had been transported to someplace like heaven -- they were simply glowing.
Another shot from the Rockefeller Chapel at The University of Chicago. Nothing fancy here. I can't wait to head back...I just ordered my Pentax 10-17mm fish-eye and can't wait to use it. And I think the UofC has tons to offer for the fish-eye.
