On 1/10/08, William Robb, discombobulated, unleashed: Thanks Paul, Frank, Joe, and Cotty for the kind comments. Joe, it really does involve getting on your belly. Ann, thanks for looking, and have a look here: http://users.accesscomm.ca/wrobb/pictures/newer/shrooms1.html Mike, those mushrooms were no more than two inches tall, so I was pretty close with a long lens. That scene is a few feet deep, and I wanted it all in focus, even if it meant giving up absolute sharpness. This is an uncropped photo, BTW. As an aside, I recently spent an hour in the woods in Hampshire with a TV - chef, filming him and the reporter finding and collecting wild mushrooms for one of his restaurants. I never knew the stunning variety that one could come across in such a short walk. The forest was thick, the light dim, with periodic and wonderful oases of brightness from the overcast sky forming literally pools of calm light through which I could filmed the subjects walking and talking. Learned about nightcaps (!) and sebs - he went mental when finding two of the most highly prized delicacies growing within inches of each other (not the nightcap ;) and filming it all was a pleasure. Later, after I had filmed him cooking them - we tried the simple dish and it was impressive, as was the lunch he gave us in the restaurant. But no such thing as a free lunch - the news service I work for has just confirmed well over 400 redundancies. I need to go back and collect some of those magic shrooms now :-) -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=|http://www.cottysnaps.com _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Plus, I'm assuming this is another HDR shot, as the depth and color seem better than any Fuji slide I've ever shot. And might I add I never commented on the first fungi shot. Sorry. But I loved it so much I just know I have to now go out into the forest and crawl around on my belly in the soggy spongey to see if I can come up with something as satisfying.

You've really captured the feel and aesthetic of the interior undergrowth. Just out of curiosity, why did you use f/ 32? That seems very tiny. *missing that area of the country right now* Mike -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
