Fruiting Body, a photo from Dalarna, Svealand

Photographer's Note

This picture was taken during one raining day nearby Vadalsbygget-alp. I'm not sure which type of mushroom this is, but my interest was more for the colours than for botanic identification. I hope you'll like it too.

Hi Markus
Yes, lovely colors. It looks almost like a fairy tale landscape.
Well seen and nicely executed.

Hi Markus,
I Like the idea that you have here. Nice colours and composition. However, a couple of points from the perspective of a viewer: The top part of the mushroom seems to be a bit overexposed and you don't seem to have balanced the depth of field for the best effect, unless what you presented is what you intended. I notice that you use Gimp. It might help you to recover some of the detail in the top of the mushroom. You also could try different crops to see if you prefer the image when you remove the out of focus areas in the foreground or the background or both. An image tends to look better when the main subject is not directly in the centre.

Best regards,
Trevor
