Woodland Mushrooms

My Kiron 105 is on an adapter which permits attachment of a second flash gun. However, mushrooms often grow where one of more freestanding guns can give more flexibility

The third image was one of several of this group of mushrooms. I didn't get what I really wanted but one freestanding flash below and to the left and another above and to the right gave this effect.

The fourth image gave a different problem, of DOF. This one was the best compromise at f16. I chose this group, on the end of a dead branch (on the ground) to give the composition I wanted, rather than other options, with the bracket fungi only on one side.

The leaves in the last image are not of clover but much large ones of Wood-Sorrel Oxalis acetosella

    Thanks, Wayne.

    A purely photographic trip, so I was able to take my time.

    Thanks, Paul.

    If the frost holds off we have plenty of season ahead of us and conditions are ideal.
