Wonderful shot Karen! You must have been down on your belly! Great tones and focus! Love how the top of the mushroom/toadstool forms such an interesting texture as it grows!

@lynnb Thanks so much, Lynn ... you are so right! I was on my belly for this and got wet khakis and stains on my white shirt. Just for 365. :)

@olivetreeann Thanks so much, Ann. Yes, I do remember your different photos on "fungi!" I didn't enjoy getting so low on the damp ground for this ... but am pleased with the results.

Creepy, but I liked the little mushrooms (or whatever!) @deburahiru @vickisfotos Thanks so much for the faves ... they are much appreciated.

This is lovely Karenann, I love the shades of browns & creams & the textures of the dead leaves...a very subtle & classy picture !!! These colours suit me as I am not a person who likes bright stuff !

posted May 29th, 2012  
@karenann You are more dedicated than I! I usually put the camera down on the ground and keep repositioning it until I get the shot I want!

@summerfield I just saw your wonderful comment from last night, summerfield. Makes me smile ...You, Ann, and me down on the ground and doing who knows what to get photos. And taking each others photos while doing it?!! Hey, I'm game. When and where?!! However, you both have to sign a "contract" that my photo will never be shown on here! lol It's a deal. :) :) :)
posted May 30th, 2012  
Great shot Karenan. You went down to the ground for this POV?
posted May 30th, 2012  
@summerfield haha Vikki- I'm telling you I really don't go down on the ground for those shots. I put the camera down and hit the shutter button!
