  1. Lovely scene, simple and serene. Posted 7 years ago
    1. Thanks! I should have zoomed out and taken a second shot for perspective/entertainment because I found this mushroom on the side of a dirt road in a not-so-lovely area. It was a little patch of beauty in an area that was otherwise pretty ugly. Posted 7 years ago
      1. I suppose in this case wide angle macro would perhaps not be ideal, but have you considered it?

        Don't have experience with it myself, but that lens is inexpensive, and given your focus on plants and fungi, could open a whole new perspective, literally :)

        1. I don't have experience with wide angle, but I love the effect of it and have been considering trying it for awhile actually. Wide angle shots add so much detail and info about a habitat. Thanks for the link, I'll check it out :) Posted 7 years ago
