For those who weren't there, this guy is the new most photographed mushroom in the world.

Very nice shot, Tim. The depth of field is just right - I love how you've shown this little mushroom in it's surroundings. Good side lighting too.
It was good to meet you.

That's really nice, Tim. Beautiful surroundings and great detail in the morel. Did anyone bring it home for dinner?

I had a great time meeting everyone. I believe I was the last one shooting him but I wasn't going to be the one that took him.

Nice job with the little shroom Tim. It would be interesting sometime to have everyone post their image from that day to see how all the compositions compare.

A big thanks to Rod for pointing this one out to me. I am the worlds worst mushroom hunter and have been looking for one of these for a couple of years.

This is a really nice environmental shot of the mushie Tim. You really controlled the elements well here. I've yet to even look at what I did but when (if) I get around to it I'll try to post one too. Great to see you again. Thanks for getting up early to join us on Sunday!
