[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
fly agaric - Amanita muscaria - Amanite tue-mouche

Poisonous and hallucinogenic properties.
The common name "Fly Agaric" comes from its European use as an insecticide.

I liked the effect of the light. I had few time as a cloud came in front of the sun. The sun was already very low, so when the cloud went away the nice light effect was gone. I wished I've used a shorter DOF and that I had removed this one grass in the front.

Thanks for looking

Bonjour,
Sympathique champignon bien conservé !
Bonne journée.

You caught the light perfectly and a lovely specimin the pavement at the top spoils the shot somewhat, and would have cropped it off.

  • Great

Bonjour Jean Marie,
Je vois que vous avez trouvé la solution pour vous débarrasser des mouches :-)) Belle prise de ce champignon particulièrement bien éclairé. Merci.
Gérard

Hi JeanMarie,
Excellent shot! The sunlight just does catch it in some warm tones. Beautiful colors and textures,. The detail is very sharp and well defined. Looks great!

Hello Jean,
I also appreciate the interesting light here, spot lighting the subject and enhancing the red of the room. Very good sharpness, detail, DOF, POV, and composed well. Hope you don't mind, but I did a WS to "try" & remove the dead grass, and blur the squared walkway, to help the focus on your subject.
Nicely done & TFS!
