Bella Mushroom Slice by olivetreeann

Bella Mushroom Slice

We had homemade mushroom soup and omelets for dinner tonight. A perfect dinner for 11 degree weather! This particular mushroom slice really caught my eye with its paper-thin ribbing. Hope you're all keeping warm, or cool, depending on which hemisphere and season you're in right now.
Cool shot. Great tones and lines. Love the creativity.

Nice shot Ann

What a great close-up shot, there is not mushroom for anything else in this shot.

Simple and effective. Agree 100% with Bulldog.

Great textures on both the mushroom and the table surface. Fav.

I like the lovely different shades of brown. Highlights how you can have a wonderful photo with basically one color.

wow. who knew a mushroom could be so dramatic.
January 28th, 2015  
Great focus to show the different textures!

@edie Thanks Edie! I have to laugh as I was holding it in my hands and staring at it for a minute or so and Jeff said, "What ARE you looking at?!"
@kerristephens Thank you Kerri!
@dibzgreasley Thank you Debs! Can one say a mushroom is beautiful? This particular mushroom would have been argument for the answer, "Yes!"
@ltodd Thanks you Lyn! Yes, while its fellow slices were bubbling away in the pot, this one had a short time of reprise.
@bulldog @salza Now, don't get all mushy on me!!
@pools82 Thank you Mike! It's my cutting board- and thanks so much for the fav!!
@joansmor Thank you Joan! I know what you mean. We get conditioned into thinking that everything must be bright and full of color. While I was taking this one, I kept thinking it was like a sepia shot- without any photo manipulation.
@francoise Thank you Francoise! Yes, they can be quite melodramatic at times. It gets the peppers in a dither too.
@lsanderson55 Thank you Leigh Anne! It took several shots and a couple different angles to get it just right.
@digitalrn Thank you Rick! Not a fan of mushrooms, are we?

Love the colour tones and textures in this shot. My husband's favourite comment is "what have you lost" as i stand gazing at something working out if it would make a good picture!

Are you trying to say I am simple but effective?

@thistle Thank you Joyce! Yes- the photographer's stare- a mystery to anyone who is not an artist! hehe

Excellent. Does it fit in the time frame for EOTB?
January 29th, 2015  
Lovely color tones.

Nice shot, Ann. I love mushroom. I love mushroom soup. I also love omelets with mushrooms and swiss cheese. You have to come up and cook for me! I may love the soup and omelets but I'll be darned if I can make them myself! Omelets usually turn into scrambled eggs. Very good job capturing the texture and the detail of the mushroom slice.

Nice shot

@bulldog simple no, effective yes :-) Now onto less mushy subjects......
January 29th, 2015  
fabulous close up!

@bill_fe Thanks Bill- no I think it's too late for the last one and too early for the next. I think I just read it starts today (the 29th) and this was taken on the 27th.

@daisymiller Thanks Daisy!
@prttblues Thanks Bev! My first omelets were disasters. And every now and then I mess one up- mostly when I'm not paying attention to the pan!
@fugitivemoments Thank you Linda!
@nicoleterheide Thank you Nicole!

it doesn't even look like a mushroom at first glance to me

Fantastic POV
January 30th, 2015  
Excellent.

@sfeldphotos Thanks Sam! Not too many of them have those folds showing so distinctly.
@taffy Thank you Taffy! I took almost 30 shots of this thing! I was trying out all different ways to photograph it so I could get a shot of the "hairs". This showed them off the best.
@vesna0210 Thank you Vesna!
