Great looking, colorful specimen. I like the diagonal comp as well. Nice work Mike.

Amazing patterns in the fungi! Looks like peeled snake skin. Great shot!

Hi Mike
Hard to find fault in this image, you have captured the pattern/colouring of the subject perfectly

A very eye-catching shot.
I like the diagonal placement of the fungi and the way the subject is lit.
The combination of textures of both the bark and the fungi really grab and hold your attention and make this one a bit special.
I think the size of the fungi within the frame is just right also.
Excellent shot.

Outstanding Mike. I really appreciate the details and contrast/color of the fungi..
Went out today under overcast skies shot some fruticose lichens (Teloschister chrysophthalmus) on a small tree branch. I used f/22 to try and bring in the whole scene, found it fascinating. Not quite as sharp as I would like, but at 1/10th it was good enough for me. http://www.howardcheekphotography.com/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pos=0
