I spent a few minutes playing with my DFA 50 macro getting some shots of
the newest mushroom crop. Live view is extremely handy for taking
ground level macros. I suspect that a u 4/3 camera (for more depth of
field than APS), with a newest generation sensor, and no mirror to
bounce could make an amazing camera for macro work.
I really like this bay leaf and mushroom combination (not a bad start on
a tasty soup, I imagine, I wonder if it's poisonous?), but can't decide
which of two compositions works best.
This one, with that little fleck of red on the post in the background:

Or this one, that's framed a lot tighter on the leaf and mushroom:

Tough call.
I think the first one, mainly because of that long leaf being more in
focus at the tip. As a general comment, I would have preferred a
slightly higher viewpoint to see a bit of the top of the mushroom.
Thanks, maybe I'll give it another shot in the morning, and try your
suggestion.
Cheers
Brian
