We had another few hours yesterday shooting fungi in the forest and I was particularly looking for some that could be used as a mini landscape, like these clumps of mycena fungi

Re: Mycena Landscape
Nicely taken. Being the sort of photographer I am, I like this a lot as it also shows it's environmental background. Yes, the fungi are very sharp on my monitor.Canon 6D; Canon 760D;Canon G15;Canon 40mm f2.8(Pancake);Canon 50mm f1.8(ii); Canon 17mm-40mm f4L;Canon EF-S 10-18mm f4.5-5.6 IS STM;Canon EF-S 55-250mm f4-5.6 STM lens;Canon 24mm-105mmf4L IS;Canon 70-300mm f4-f5.6 L IS USM;Kenko 1.4x HD TC;Canon 430EX ii flash;Giottos tripod;Manfretto monopod;Cokin P filters + bits and pieces!

Re: Mycena Landscape
Very nice Stan. You could also crop in from the left to only include the right hand clump (or whatever the collective noun is for a group of fungi).

Re: Mycena Landscape
I prefer the second one, partly because of the crop but mainly because of the lower view point

Re: Mycena Landscape

Re: Mycena Landscape
I much prefer the second Stan - more detailed.
Apparently, it is a colony (boring) or a flush of fungi.Originally posted by Swanny48 View PostJohn Liddle

Re: Mycena Landscape
I'm going against the stream on this and preferring the first, Stan; I think the left hand clump, which mirrors the background shape of the log, adds more interest than going in close. Both very good, though.

Re: Mycena Landscape
First one for me Stan. I prefer how the mushrooms don't break over the top of the log. Nice shotAlan.

Re: Mycena Landscape
thanks guys
I think that one says more landscape than the second but a shame the green is not smoother - I think with that one I wasn't quite so low down as it had started to rain at the timepreferring the first
