michaellinder 16,613 Posted June 2, 2014 What an exquisite way to showcase the incredible beauty of this mushroom. The curvatures are quite dramatic, and the lighting promotes a sense of movement along the right edge. At first I wasn't sure about the green bokeh in the background, but the more I look at the image, the more I realize that it helps to draw my eyes from front to back. Outstanding work! My best,michael PS Glad you connected with my B&W. Link to comment

michaellinder 16,613 Posted July 20, 2014 It seems that the folks who select the POTD read the comments and noticed the ratings before the selection! My congratulations! michael Link to comment
jim_j2 9 Posted July 20, 2014 I like the curvature and the way the lighting falls upon the "gills."Like someone has already mentioned, at first I wasn't sure about that green background and thought I might like the frame filled with the subject. However, I think your presentation and the matching color you used on the framing really "sets it off!" Congrats!Jim j. Link to comment
Rick Bortnick 2,167 Posted July 21, 2014 Thank you one & all for your comments. If/when I get a chance to photograph gills, I will try some of the suggestions.Rick Link to comment
