The Blusher
Hi Everybody,

Thanks to everybody replied regarding the website. It has now been updated at www.c-m-l.com so I hope that you feel it has improved.

This is a picture of a Blusher fungus that I found while out and about a couple of weeks ago. I was undecided as to whether it was a Blusher or a Panthercap but I finally decided on the Blusher.

The techs were:
Nikon D2X, 150mm Macro, 1sec at F10, beanbag, self timer,

Kind regards Chris.

A prestine shroom,I too think its a blusher,I think you have done some gardening around the shroom but still find the yellow leaf behind a bit distracting although could be said that it adds colour and an autuminal feel :toast:

Nice one although I often think images of mushrooms and fungi work better with wide angle lenses at their minimum focal lenght showing the habitat/setting!

Have to disagree about leaves in the background being distracting. I like the yellows and oranges Ð very autumnal.
