How do you do this!? a 70-200 F/2,8? :-O Bokeh and still a long dof. great!

used my sigma 17-70 at 70mm aperture 4.5. This mushroom was only about 2cm big.

Great entry - like something out of a fairy tale

I like that you can see the cobwebs - might play with curves just a tiny bit to make the shroom a little darker

Fabulous entry, perfect bokeh, really impressed and would not be a bit surprised to see it take 1st.

I agree, it's an amazing shot !

Congrats! Well deserved of placing!

Croped a bit too close to the stone.

yeah, I know. The problem is the pole behind the stone (see the shadow). It is so destracting without the crop.

lovely

Great sky behind the cross !

Stunning colors! Very vibrant. I love the brightness of this picture since it brings out the beauty of the trees. Excellent job!

wow very vibrant and beautiful! It reminds me of my old backyard. Would this happen to be in Peck? lol
