This year, mushrooms have been popping up in my yard like, well, like
mushrooms. One stump has four or five varieties. Since it's right
outside my front door, it keeps distracting me with opportunities to
play with my macro lens.
I really wanted to take some photos of the mushrooms today, but I was
right at the tail end of a home improvement project. Have you ever
noticed how occasionally home repairs seem to take a little bit longer
than expected? I was noticing this on what my have been my eighth
"last trip to the hardware store". I was bummed that I didn't get a
chance to photograph the mushrooms today before it got dark.
When I finished the project at about 9:30 tonight, I decided to grab
my strobes and give it a try at night. I should have realized that
when you throw a metric buttload of photons at a subject, that can
improve the quality of the photos.
Here's one I particularly like:

Which has a few I shot during the day on Sunday as well.
