I tried to get a closeup today of insects, but the DOF on the Venus lens is so small, photographing anything that moves is quite difficult. Also, the ring light I use seems to bother bugs and insects. This tiny mushroom looks like a tiny white dot on my tree to the naked eye. I thought it looked interesting so I am posting this.

Excellent macro-play. Focussing can
be quite tricky but in this world it can
turn out quite rewarding!

Nice shot. So neat how these lenses can make the small world visible to your viewers.

the shallow DOF is not a problem here, with the mushroom clear to see...it looks a bit like something you would see at a bakery..

That is very interesting looking. Always fun to experiment in photography. Nicely composed too. V
