When some wattle trees become stressed they exude resin from the bark. If you can get the sun shining through the blobs of resin they come up with some really interesting patterns. These are shot with a 100 mm f2.8 macro, all natural light.

Thank you everyone. I thought I could see a horse's head in the first one, so I gave it an eye and a mouth.
