Mushrooms

Comment by roz:
its funny .. but i thought .. this is the sort of photo i could quite possible take while sitting on my rear end .
i hope you didnt cheat Germaine .. lol .. !! .. ;)
its a wonderful photo of those mushies .. and i'd never eat a 'mushroom' that i found growing in the ground .. i'm not expert enough to know .. and i think i know the difference between a mushroom and a toadstool ... but i'd never want to risk it .
i think the results could be catastrophic ..

Love the long exposure. The trees look like feather dusters. Love the streaks in the sky too.

Nature never ceases to amaze. So much that we take for granted. Simple and nice.

I like the depth of field and the bright magenta ag. the softer greens. Nicely captured.

Odd and almost clumsy way to grow a fruit but beautifully captured

I like the pop of color on this. It adds a nice balance.

i look back 10 years or so ...
OMG .. its been that long .. !! ..
when we were in the side challenges ..
the growth as photographers that i see in so many ppl here is just wonderful ..

and its funny .. but i look back on photos i took back then .. which i was pleased with .. and i'm almost mortified .. and think of removing them off the site .. i really hope that isnt happening for me too much now .. altho .. trouble is i wont know for a while .. ;)

but when i first saw this .. thats exactly what i thought .. about the growth as photographers ..
also that this is just marvellous .. the colours are jumping off the page .. those red cactus fruit things look 3D .. they are about to drop onto my tablet ..
what a wonderful image Germaine .. the greens and the red fruit popping out .. the background .. perfect dof .. excellent .. :)

i should proof read before i post .. eh .. !! .. ;)

you know germaine .. size does matter .. !!! ..
sometimes an image looks far better on my phone .. and then i look at it on the pc and i can actually be disappointed ..
this however is the total opposite .. on my pc i can see so much more detail .. on the phone i was struggling ..
this has gone from something colourful and interesting to something far more . there is so much going on ..
so busy .. I LOVE IT .. !!! .. :)

I didn't know you had to take so many pictures to get a shot like this. It's pretty cool!
