Soft No1

For this week's Dogwood Challenge we were to interrupt "soft". Oyster mushrooms are soft to the touch and have a delicate taste.

Like this.

That's one ugly mushroom, but I do like your interpretation of 'soft'.

[Catherine]

A great interpretation of 'soft'. Nice soft focus in the reflection too.

@sdutoit Thank you so much.

@deborah63 I kinda agree. I am rather surprised to see them in the local grocery store. This isn't really mushroom area.

@megpicatilly Thank you, the lensbaby was big help here.

[Monika Samburska]

interesting shot ! love reflection , really nice idea :)

@msamburska Thank you, the cluster of mushrooms was a lot fun to shoot but then eat afterwards too.

Although I've never seen oyster mushrooms in this neck of the woods, the forest is crawled over by mushroom hunter/gatherers in due season. VML the use of reflection here, takes the shot to another level.

I really like this, it's making me a little dizzy, love the reflection!

@s4sayer Thank you very much, they do have a gentle flavor. These are definitely not grown around here, way to dry.

@overalvandaan Thank you a great deal, I still a lot to learn about getting these set up reflection shots right.

[Ukandie!]

I like this, works nicely for your challenge!

[Stephanie]

Interesting subject for the challenge and a nice result too. I was just asking on my other post about your lensbaby as I hadn't seen many pics from you with it just lately!

[Laura]

Lovely.

@ukandie1 Thank you a great deal.

@stephanies I just reorganized my photo stuff and realized it would be helpful with the challenge.

@la_photographic Thank you so much, I did try these in a few recipes, they have a gentle flavor.
