Fungus Mount Macedon for Treasure Tuesday

 

This was taken at the beginning of the month which was rather late for mushroom hunting. 

Overnight was zero-degree celcius. No fun. The lack of sunlight and the cold feeling in isolation does make me a little melancholic. 

On YouTube, I saw this phenomenon called "Blue Dot Effect" published in psychiatric journal, which was rather interesting. Basically, we all choose to have our own problems when there is nothing really major. Food for thought.

A bit late to the mushroom hunt with Joel this year. Though we did not find parasol, these brown ones will do.

I am so looking forward to coming home to Melbourne later this week. I am missing out mushroom season and autumn leaves turning there.

We hit out to Mount Macedon on the weekend. Mushroom hunting 3rd time this year. We noticed many mushrooms were destroyed by others after photographing them. 

The relentless foraging finally got to this one on a dead log so far away from the normal walking paths in Sanitarium Lake. We got the shot this year.

It is very hard ignoring it when I see one. Love the petite look of it.

The sheer joy of getting a macro shot in focus. I am using an old sigma macro lens from 30 years ago. There is no digital coating on the lens. So flare sensitivity is clear. I don't like flashes in macro so this was taken at high ISO. A lot of noise. Well, whatever. It was a nice walk in the wet forest.

A stroll in the woods. Refreshing to see a mushroom. Shallow depth of field is nice too.

This is an image that I think black and white version would show the dynamic elements in the frame better. The rocks look like mushroom almost.
