Late Fall 1 of 7

Posted by Illuci (Hurdegaryp, Netherlands) on 9 November 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

I promised Rabbit a series about food, but last two weeks were so beautiful and from this week on all leaves have been blown from the trees, that I postpone the food till after this series.

Rabbit from Richmond, United States

Tiz ok my dear holding off on the series of FOOD next week is closer to US Thanksgiving which is ALL about FOOD -Besides i LOVE photos of mushrooms. This looks like an image i would see in a book to show off this type of mushroom. i think they are cool looking because they look like they have cinnamon sprinkled on top of them.

@Rabbit: Thanks Rabbit, I was maybe inspired by your cappucino with the cinnamon on the mushrooms :), but you're right: isn't it funny that nature offers us so many things that we humans find beautiful and attractive? In Amsterdam there's a zoo named "Artis" after the saying "Natura Artis Magistra": Nature is Art's Teacher.

Nice low angle and great lighting.

@badala: Thanks badala, the lighting was more or less coincidental because the sun was just beginning to hide, and after a while it started to shine again. So it went on during all day that day.

Candace from United States

I keep waiting for a little fairy or gnome to pop out. Excellant shot...I love mushrooms.

@Candace: Thanks Candace, for waiting :), I didn't have the patience for in the trunk you see I saw a little cobold's door (not visible on the pic), but I didn't want to wait until dark, then they come out to collect hazelnuts and stuff.

e. from Washington DC, United States

Beautiful photo of mushrooms! I really like the pov.

@e.: Thanks e., me too, for the POV see my reply to Amy, and I risked a stain in the knee of my trousers but I don't care about that for a good picture.

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

Fantastic shot Illuci!!

@amy: Thanks, Amy, it was also because the mushroom stood above a slight slope in the terrain which gave a nice background.

MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom
