I'm amazed. Do fungi come in this colour? Well, obviously it does, only I'd never seen it before ;-)) The colours are most vivid, and the velvety quality does come across nicely. Beautiful. Please drop a few spores of this in our local wood ;-))

Beautiful. The layered composition and contrasting colors makes the cobalt blue truly take center stage. The varied textures also are suggestive of the title. Well done. P.S. also liked the detail photo as it gave a better view of the texture.

Felipe!
Maybe before you took a shot, somebody painted this piece of wood. Just kidding. Looks so beautiful, I never seen that color of fungi before. Excellent sharpness and details.

¡ Hola Felipe!
Una buena imagen acompañada por una nota excelente.
En cambio, parecería que tengas un poco sursaturé el color azul porque aparece no sólo sobre las setas sino que sobre las zonas de tono imágenes coseñoras las hojas que normalmente no enarbolan el color azul.
Un trabajo excelente.
Gracias

This is extramundi,Felipe... from a spaceship , no doubt.
This stuff is so far out,I wondered at first if it was real. I thought,'Ha...our friend Felipe has set up a trick shot to see if he can fool us.' It really does look that unreal. My favourite colour too. I love violet tones. Crown chakra stuff.
Excellent photo !

All the image paramters are excellent, this is a shot to be very proud of - a favourite.
PS the workshop image is just superb. Great work Felipe.

Very alien Filipe, looks like the kids covered the log with poster paint, the colour is so vibrant. we really are getting to see some of the stranger fungi of the world, nice one.

WOW! Felipe, what are you showing me now. This is fascinating stuff. Neve knew this existed. I can imagine the velvet showing off more in real life but you did a great job of showing it to us. Well done.

I'm amazed too! Never, ever seen a fungi this colour. It is a beautiful colour and I am impressed Felipe, with the care you take making sure you have the correct colout, etc. Very well done. Janice

I will have a jacket in that colour, and my wive the suit!
This is beautiful, Felipe. The velvet is so vivid ro be nearly felt on the picure!
We have mites here in SA, very read, and also completely velvety - the y apear only after rain id the dry areas of our country.
As for the agama. I never make the verical higher than 600, because then I cannot see the whole image on the screen. I you would like the full picture I will mail you a bigger one.

I had no idea such things existed in such colors as living things! Remarkable fungus. Thanks for the detail in the workshop, too. I'm tempted to say that you may have pushed the saturation of the blues too much, but that may be its actual color! Nice work.

Hello Filipe. Stunning colours, I thought initially it was modified but I'm blown away to know the truth. It's really very nicely composed with great contrasting colours between the blue, green and brown. Thanks, Don.
