Thanks. Ya, the 3rd one does look, hmmm, strange. It was taken with the pop-up flash just for giggles.

Thanks. Agreed on the 3rd one.

3 is the best IMO. the first two seem a little off with the lighting and focus. but 3 you nailed it!

Thanks for the comments. The funny thing is that the colors in #3 are the closest to 'real life.' They are pretty black. The lack of sharpness in 1 & 2 is more a matter of handshake than anything. I'm not too steady and EXIF says the shutter speed was 1/10.

Yes, gross - that's why I like 'em! You can find nice, round, evenly shaped mushrooms at the grocery store.

Very cool! I also like the third. The stalks are great, they look like wood.

Here's a shot of a mushroom I took a few months ago

Nice shot, Eldrich. With a winter storm coming, it kinda makes me think of a nice little shelter you could get under, out of the weather

Thanks!

I took this pic on the same hike.

And I desperately wanted to bring this little guy to that mushroom and get some shots of him sitting on/under it etc. But it was like a 30 or 45 minute hike back to the mushroom, and I doubted if I'd be able to get him to behave.

I like it -- I like frogs and that would have made a great photo with him with the mushroom! If I remember right, I think those are called 'robber frogs." ??
