Arcyria denudata Candy Slime Mould
This is a common species, varying in colour from pink to red to grey.
These are sporocarps, aka fruiting bodies, about 1mm high.
I found these pink ones of a rotten apple tree branch on damp ground in my garden. The one with the net extruded was the only thing moving in the otherwise still air. It was swinging around in a wide arc and focusing was mostly luck.
EM-1, Schneider HM 40mm reversed on extension and x1.5 TC, hand-held, TTL flash. (My usual flash mount was out of service, awaiting repair, I used triple off-camera, free-standing guns. The FL-50R was in a spare FL-300R foot. Everything was on a table and I sat down. Bliss!).
The stereo is cross-eye.
