Sally D’s Mobile Photography Challenge: Nature

Nov 2, 2015Nov 3, 2015 Forestwood

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?

Each week has a different theme.

Something to Ponder About

Published by Forestwood

A philosophic Aussie writes here at StPA, one who will readily admit to loving Scandinavia. I'm interested in global politics and what drives us to be who we are. Scratch the surface and you'll find a practical Environmentalist with an egalitarian bent, trying to unleash a little creativity via the written word. Scandinavian culture, literature and traditions are close to my heart, even though I'm Australian. Travel and courteous discussions greatly broaden the mind, so I travel if I can and am always up for a vigorous, respectful discussion. I'm an avid reader, I enjoy photography and craft, particularly traditional art forms. I hope you'll find 'Something to Ponder About,' in my WordPress Community. View all posts by Forestwood

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.
