Subject information:	Fernando Gonzalez Gentile
Title:	Transillumination
Gear used:	Tripod mounted 65 ~ 116 Telescopic Extension Tube, Zuiko 135mm 1:4,5 Macro, Olympus OM 4 on Spot reading mode, Winder 2, Eyecup 1.
Diaphragm:	f5,6
Exposure:	About 2 seconds.
Technical Information:	Bunch of flowers illuminated by a street lamp just on the opposite side but several meters away. Lamp has a strong yellow cast, and the flowers are saturated yellow at daylight. Magnification about 1:10. Several spot readings mainly in the darker area, hope less than eight :-)
Subject Information:	These are the yellow flowers of the tree which grows in front of my house. It was a windy night, so I had to 'feel' the rhythm of the blow before pressing the shutter; tried twice and was lucky on both. Preferred this one because of the pattern of light holes within the bunch of flowers.

Wonderful backlight, especially the rims of light around some parts. ...Wayne

You acchieved a great effect with relatively simple setup. I very much like the light around the branches or stems.
