Signs of Fall

Gallery: Macro & Close-upPosted October 5, 2010127 views7 comments
Taken this afternoon. Having a wet start to Autumn has generated a bounty of mushrooms. I'm enjoying photographing them AND learning about the many different varieties. Still too chicken to eat any wild ones yet...

Nikon D300; 300mm; f5.6@ 1/250th; HH; 50% crop.

All comments and suggestions welcome!

The addition of the acor puts this over the top. Excellent colors and textures. Would have liked to see it as a pano also.

Very nice image, Tom! The addition of the acorn is very nice to show us how small these mushrooms really are. I would be very careful too, before eating one of them... :toast:
