Light in the Forest

On Saturday Lenore and I were working on the drainage on our shared road. Some idiot in a four wheel drive tore it up really badly over the winter creating a bunch of ruts where the water has pooled creating great breeding spots for mosquitoes. The road also functions as a fire escape route and the big ruts will make it difficult for passenger cars to negotiate.(Rant Over) Along our route I discovered one of the last fungi that must have popped up during the recent rain. Later on during the night Jay and I went back out and he helped me photograph the fungi by holding a flashlight directly over it. It gave it an unusual look. This image was created with a Canon 7D and a Canon EF-S17-85 mm lens at 33mm. Camera settings used were Manual mode, ISO 400, F 13.0 at 1/8th of a sec. The camerawas supported by a Gorilla Pod on the ground.God's blessings upon your week, chris
