We had been to the Dudley zoo with our child this weekend. I am not a person keen to go to zoos, for I dislike to see animals in captivity. So, when most people were busy looking at animals, I went about to shoot this leaf from a creeper into which sunlight was peeping standing on an awkward stone.

A minute back I turned around and saw people behind me waiting patiently for me to move and when I did, they went and took a peek into the creeper and then gave one weird look at me !! I am not sure what they were expecting to see there :)

A tree, in front of my house, was swarming with bees. The whole time I was shooting, I was hoping I wouldn't get stung, but the bees were more interested in the pollen, than my camera lens. I captured this shot of the wings of a bee. It was simply amazing how translucent and thin they are and I wonder how in the world those can help them take flight. Anyway, I thought this was a cool shot. I may go try for some more tomorrow. I shot this with the A7r iii and the Helios 44-2 58mm with the extension tubes for macro.

Yamaha bass. Slightly worn but responding well to treatment.

Finally got the triggers to work and decided to put greaseproof paper on the glass and fruit on the paper instead of putting paper under the glass and fruit on the glass :-) quite happy with the result

rebecca described this as 'dank'.

 

well, it is her window. she can describe it any way she likes.

Periclimenes sp., in the sand in Dauin, Negros, Philippines. These shrimps are very hard to see - almost completely translucent. They tend to live near the base of anemones.

Early in the development of Ridley Scott's ALIEN, the designers tested out a translucent version of the HR Giger design.

This flower is actually pink, but colour shifts in Lightroom turn it translucent.

 

Coincidentally, I posted this photo just as my photo stream hit 1,000 views.

One of those great days.

   

Self portrait.

Beech woodland has that special quality at this time of year. The light passes right through their leaves brightening up an otherwise dull looking scene.

Two speedlight. One in front of the model through translucent umbrella, nude flash right to the camera in the first pic is now shot through translucent umbrella behind the model, almost at same level to avoid the shadow that the wood would produce

  

Dos flashes. Uno a la izquierda de la cámara frente a la modelo a través de un paraguas, el flash desnudo a la derecha de la primera foto se dispara ahora a través de otro paraguas desde detrás, pero no mucho porque el poste podría proyectar sombras indeseables.

These are at most about 1/8 inch in size. I find the shape of them to be stunning!

Just light and colour really.

Never in my life have I seen water so translucent and so clear as on that particular hot and sunny day on the beach which is depicted here. After a 3-hour long hike it was very enjoyable to cool down and relax in the sea. But as our world is rapidly polluted, how long will we be able to enjoy this pure and clean water in its most beautiful form? (Bay of Bréhec, Bretagne. France.)

May all beings in Mumbai know love, peace and security.
