I'm a fan of mushroom photos, and this is a nice arrangement. I do wish the highlights weren't so blown. It would be worth trying to reign them in.

You have found a nice looking clump of mushrooms, Miro. I like the contrast in colors of the mushrooms from the moss-covered log. Your POV also lets the viewer see the interesting undersides. I think the whole picture could be darkened somewhat, plus some extra darkening of the bright areas in the background and on the log would be helpful as well.

That is a photogenic clump of mushrooms and the green moss makes a fine contrast. I like your pov and the amount of space given to the mushrooms, but do agree with the others about the highlights.

With the blown highlights, you might want to convert this to a B&W photo. If you did that, you could increase the structure of the underside of each mushroom and crop a bit off the top. Worth a shot, as this is a nice composition.
