nice shot ! its like the mushrooms we see in animes !

Wicked mushroom - shame that the image has a lot of noise

nice shroom... but a bit of noise

Agrees with Kyricom. Too much noise. Try to reduce it.

Thanks for all the comments. The photo was probably taken with my first digicam which was a 1 mp HP Photosmart. Granted that doesn't mean I couldn't get a sharp photo, but not many selections for shade other than Program mode in it.

Wow - never seen one like this

looks like some kind of alien plant

That's definitely unique!

Cool- these look like sea shells on stalks

looks like a little parasol
