Brisbane Ranges National Park is located broadly between Bacchus Marsh & Geelong, west of Melbourne. Whilst it may not have the visual stunning features of some places, it is a very quiet place for contemplation (esp mid week).
Translucent leaves - just another element of visual splendor.

21015 Challenge: WEEK 35: Translucent Outdoor Long Exposure
I set out this week to shoot a series of images following this theme. I have a few, and will be posting them later.
This image was the first one I conceived, and I'm most proud of it. I had to work with the low light of evening time, in order to have a slow enough shutter speed to capture the lego minifig with just the right amount of translucency.
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.
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
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.

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 :)
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.

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

A friend of mine, Adrien, is a sculptor, and he created this sculpture from a solid piece of granite. The middle is very thin and the quartz embedded in the granite allows light to pass through.

I just got Paul Buff's CyberCommander to use with my Alien Bess and Cybersyncs. This is my first studio work with the new CyberCommander.
Alien Bee AB800 with grid behind granite sculpture.
A piece of 2x4' white plastic is curved over the top of the piece.
Two AB800s are aim through the white plastic to create the fine rim of light.
This shows an example of the curved white plastic:
