These Mushrooms are coming up all over the bush in Nature Preserve right now...gives me chance to use Macro Mode on my lens. Sometimes I think I am getting to old for this as I got right down on my stomach down on ground and used my backpack to steady my camera to shoot these at there level...LOL. Used Nikon D50 with Tamron 70-300 lens set in Macro Mode. Shutter at 1/10 aperture F/16 ISO 200..

Your effort wasn't wasted Gerry. The camera angle really works in these. I'm glad you made the extra effort to get this. Good job.

Well, you can still hold that camera real steady, Gerry and that's all that matters. LOL I like the way the light is falling on the mushroom tops.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Of the two I like this one the best and it definitely was worth the effort, as long as you didn't get hurt in the process. I've got this in my spring and summmer file...terrific job !! :)
