I was having a hard time taking a picture of this mushroom. Even though it wasn't exactly sunny today, it seemed like no matter what I did with the settings on my camera, my pictures kept coming out with a halo around the mushroom. I got this shot by taking it from the same direction as the light was shining. It still kind of has a glow around it, but not as much as it did from the other angles. I also had a picture of the train yard I wanted to post today, but I decided this picture was more of a learning experience, and it does have my cracked up patio in the background to keep it more true to the theme of my project.
