Forest floor: 3
I must say I do admire people who post daily – it’s a huge effort! Well, here is day 3…I liked these specimens for their elegance. I went back a second time after it had been raining and did enjoy lying on my stomach in very wet undergrowth, delighting in this ‘other world’ of such diverse and delicate beauty 🙂

wonderful photo
Thank you!
Love It! I can just imagine you taking the pic!
Hello Julie! Glad you like it 😀
Excellent Lisa- beautiful photo!
Thank you Bridgid!
The stomach thing is a large part of what makes it so fun to be so close to our subjects. I have a good (Hoodman) right-angle finder that makes it possible to have the camera flat on the ground and look down into it rather than having to get your eye to the viewfinder, and at times it’s an invaluable tool, but it’s still fun to get right down to ground level. Especially for those who share our fondness for fungi.
Yes, all good fun for fungi fans
Absolutely magical again!! I love those stomach shots too! And yes about the daily postings! Keeping up isn’t easy – at least for me. I have set myself to about 3 times a week these days.
Thank you! You are doing well with three!
This is a lovely series – I can imagine the fun of exploring the woods and grovelling in the muck to get the best angle 🙂
I must admit, I have absolutely no idea how people post every day – I’m struggling to post more than once a month at the moment!
Hello Noeline – glad you’ve liked them. Yes my brief dip into daily posting didn’t last long!!
Absolutely right, get flat down on the ground and its another world. Very nice differential focusing here, and I like the way the image starts of low with corn colours and then blends up into greens. A
Thanks Adrian – hope you are well. The weather here is right up your street – had fog for days!
I’ve just looked through all three Forest Floor images. Such variety, and nicely captured!
Thank you – there was a huge variety when we went
Very beautiful.
Thanks LD – they were a wonderful sight.
