An original angle and nice composition.

Hi Bob.
The image is nice, very good POV, excellent use of available DOF to get nice details and great composition.
The overexposed parts in the BG distract a bit.
Nice mycological post, TFS and regards, Felipe.

hi Bob, verys nice famili with good POV and coloures,.

Hi Bob.
Composition makes for a different view of these fungi, colour is good, slightly soft in focus but a great bunch all together for this view.

Hi Bob, your positioning on these guys is very good. Were they at the top of a hill? I like the composition. You have made good use of your depth of field to isolate them from their background, yet still preserve enough of the background to provide a good setting for us.

Hi Bob,
I just found these one whilst browsing your photos.
I love this sort of photo as you know.
This is an impressive clump and well captured.
Possibly a lower EV (exposure value) would have been better ... try to focus on a bright spot so the cmera adjusts itself darker.
A great shot though.
Well done.
Steve

Hello Bob,
A good point of view resulting in this dynamic composition!
Good textures and colours in the mushrooms, and they usually look more interesting from below...
Good exposure, well framed!
Greetings,

:-) OK-

Nice macro with a great POV showing all the features of the fungus.
