Candle Snuff
Xylaria hypoxylon

Hi All,

Indeed it has been a long time since I last posted. Since the move I still don't seem to have enough time to devote to the forum or in the field as I would like, but I am sure the time will come. It's Phil's fault of course :biggrin: But seriously, thank you all for your well wishes, much appreciated.

This image is a follow up to Phil's earlier posting after our woodland walk earlier today.

40D,300mm f4 + ext tubes,ISO 500,f13,1/6 sec.

Well executed shot Fran but the subject isn't as appealing as Phil's. Must be he bags all the good looking ones!

I like the simplistic composition and the slightly graduated background.

I like the off-centre composition and the background makes the fungi really stand out.

Nice shot.

Cheers,
Chris

Unusual looking fungi. Composition and BG set it off nicely. :wavey:

Glad you have settled in/down :biggrin: :wink:

I must say I disagree with Robert, I find this the more interesting subject. Obviously Phil is a gentleman after all. :wink:
