Mushroom Season

My ostensible purpose in visiting Thetis Lake Regional Park earlier this week was to see if any mushrooms had responded to the autumn rains. They are still not too numerous but there are several different kinds popping up now. These were the largest I saw before a heavy rain forced me to run for home.

    Love the light and the water droplets look like jewels.

    Hi JoJo - you asked yesterday about the lens I've been using to take these close-ups - it's a Tamron Macro lens - 90mm 2.8. It's one of my favourite lenses - very sharp generally easy to use.

    Magical image Ben, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if a fairy wasn't flitting around somewhere close by. Gorgeous.
