Part one of a series . All were taken with a canon 20d and a sigma 150 mm lens. A tripod was used if possible. A piece of white paper was used as a reflection screen to get some light underneath. The inspiration for the frame came from here

Two lovely wallpapers. This one reminds me of a little umbrella. I wonder why.

Another example of how it is done. Excellent job with great color & depth of field control and again I like the bordering you have used. The bordering really makes your image stand out. Thanks for sharing, Don

Another fabulous macro shot Kristof, I love the little drop of water, like a tiny diamond decorating the toadstool.

What a shot. The focus is very good, and the composition, and use of negative space is very effective. The drop of water tops of this fine iamge. I do wonder though.. why at full view i notice a small lighter patch of green around the top-right of the mushroom.. it's noticeable even from the preview-view. You did no editing on this?
