Hallo Gert,
Wat is dit weer een schitterende foto. De 'aardkleuren' en het licht zijn verbluffend mooi. Scherpte, diepte, compositie en het lage standpunt uitstekend.
Kortom weer een meesterwerkje om trots op te zijn.
Groet,
Peter

Hallo Gert,

Een zonnig herfstplaatje. Een fijn detail is dat je hierbij een lage POV hebt gebruikt. Je krijgt dan toch een andere kijk op de paddestoel en zijn groeiomgeving. Kleurstellingen zijn goed tot zeer goed. Mooie rustige achtergrond.

Groeten en TFS BOB

Hi Gert,
A nice capture of this beautiful mushroom. Superb details and a lovely composition. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Merhaba Gert,
Diger mantar karelerin gibi bu da doğal renkleri yansıtması, harika bir ışıklandırma ve geriplanın molumlu katkılarıyla yine enfes bir çalışma olmuş.
Eline sağlık.

Hello Gert,

Hi Gert
Gorgeous light and colours.
Very good work.
Regards Jiri.

Hi Gert. The moss and lichen are as attractive as the mushroom here. Very good balance and contrast in the framing and very well shared here in TN. Best regards. Jusni
