3 more pictures and a note above ! :)
I woke up to the sound of rain pattering on the windows and drumming on the roof and I couldn't help but smile. We aren't having a very wet Fall this year, and with the decreased humidity and moisture, there haven't been many mushrooms so far. Of course I've found plenty, but that's only because I know where to look. Honestly, I should be tripping over them at this point. However, the rain during the night and this morning surely helped move things along, and I was excited to find out what had popped up!
As soon as the rain dwindled to a light drizzle, I bounced out of the house without any dogs to worry about, and you'd better believe I had my macro flash with me! :D I went to the lower forest where it's darker and full of moisture, and started looking around...it didn't take long before I found one...two...three...BUNCHES of mushrooms! Large ones like I've photographed recently, and extremely tiny ones, and then, I noticed something flash from under a leaf. Pulling the leaf aside, I found THIS glistening beauty, glowing white and radiant!
I was able to position the camera just right, and to my utter happiness, I was able to adjust the exposure of the flash so that this white mushroom wasn't blown out! For me, using a flash has been EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING in the past for light/bright objects because they are so easy to over-expose. But now I'm able to do exposure compensation with confidence and darn if it didn't work just right!! I had time to practice this morning and experimented with the flash, without the flash, and I also used the shutter speed mode (TV) just to test. If I want to make a picture that isn't low-key but still has this dof, I'd need to use a tripod, which I didn't have. In any event, when I got home and looked at my pictures, I was overjoyed by this one!! :D
