Shroom with a drip
20D, 180/3.5, ISO100, Manual incident, 2sec @ f14, Diffuser + gold reflector, Remote + MLU, A-327 + BH1, C1Pro + CS2.

Hi,

No the drip isn't me although some may disagree :biggrin:

From a Saturday early am foray, found this small (1/2 inch) shroom with some jewelry, Not ID'd as yet sorry.

Three exposure focus stack (should have been four but I have discovered that my 180 isn't properly closing the aperture on each exposure, so needs to go in for service :frown: )done manually in PS.

Again slight backlighting so used a grey diffuser to soften and reduce the harsh sunlight with a gold reflector to add some warmth back, bg shielded to avoid specular highlights.

All the best
