The Phone camera is fast replacing hand held digital SLR or auto focus cameras. These were taken with a HTC, a while ago.
Wood rotting fungi are a wonderful organism. Paradoxically parasitic, yet self-sustaining! Their end product is a gift to the soil.

Edited slightly for minor enhancements.

Cropped and Warmed up in Picasa. Which version, do you think, is best?

A philosophic Australian writes here, one who admits to loving Scandinavia. I'm interested in global politics, but scratch the surface and you'll find I am a practical Environmentalist with an Egalitarian bent trying to unleash a little creativity.
Scandinavian culture, literature and traditions are close to my heart, even though I am Australian. Travel broadens the mind, so I travel whenever I can. I am an avid reader, I enjoy photography, writing and a variety of crafts, particularly traditional art forms. You are always welcome to stop by at S.t.P.A.

Amanda, your captures makes those mushrooms come alive and show their vibrant color, which is not often seen in them. The “end product is a gift to the soil” is a lovely thought. Happy Photo Challenge.

Wonderful photos Amanda 🙂 The bracket fungus are amazing things. Personally I prefer the un-edited version (top one) of the two lower photos.
