Toadstool

by iangilmour

Another toadstool I found growing in a plant pot in my garden. Rather than lie down and damage my kneck/back, I decided to dig up the whole clump of earth and place it on a table indoors where I used my macro lens and a ring light.

Good move -viewing up and through the clump of grass offers a lilliputian POV. This is a museum quality image based on technical, conception and execution plusses and no minuses. TG

You make it sound so easy - it isn't.
Super shot
