About the Image(s)
I took a hike up into the hills in east San Jose to see if some mushrooms had begun to emerge. The only one I found was this variety which is small but very pretty. I took out my full frame Sony with a macro lens and begun to set up when I discovered it had no card! (This isn’t the first time I’ve done this.) So I used my iPhone 15 Pro set on Pro Raw and a small LED light I had. Placing the iPhone on the ground and using the light to highlight the gills I shot a series of these at different angles. This is the one I settled on and doing some cropping, sharpening and de-focusing the background a bit, came up with this submittal. I’m really not sure which one I like better, the original or the crop.
This round’s discussion is now closed!

Greetings my friend.
Your mushroom looks good in the frame. I love the angle that you have used. Nicely done and thank you for sharing.
Kindest regards.
