At a walk in the forest I shot several of these mushroom thingies. It was a good walk. The complete set of all photos looks great. But they are all edited basic illegal (Capture NX control points rock!). I had to redo this one completely to get a legal version. With control points I could make a better lighting/contrast balance....
No macro lens, just the 30 at the edge of its focus capability. Handheld etc....
Capture NX:
- White balance
- Lightness levels
- color mode change
Really neat perspective and colors. The depth of field being a little wider than normal really helps keep more of the mushroom in focus and it works very well
Gnome should have cleaned up the twig on the right ;)
Would have preferred the gills in the front to be in focus as well to make the mushroom more dominant in the picture. A tighter crop and slight change in angle to exclude the trees in the background may have been a better option.
