forest fairytale (macros)

A few macros from my recent shoot. I found some fresh Mica cap mushrooms and have 2-hour fun shooting them. Used natural lighting and hands only. Actually, it is not a forest, just a spot of some virgin soil with a lot of last year dead leaves. One can find a lot of intresting stuff looking under the feet.

'Under the veil'

Clickable - better watch in hires.

(A branch decorated with yellow and grey lichens helped me to create such a cool background).

And look closer at this little spider. He's real plush! ... or maybe velvet.

Another sleeping seed.
