20080816 - Muzzers

For the Achromatic August theme.

Pot mushrooms from my holiday on Arran. One day I'll work out how to photograph them!

Processing: B&W adjustment layer, turned the blues down (the mushrooms are blue). Cloned out some lines on the table (must get a 'shiny thing' to put stuff on!!!).

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM
1/200s f/2.0 at 135.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I like the positioning of the light to get the long shadows
well done

A small amount of bleach in water will keep these from growing on your table ;o)
