Mushrooms

It has been raining a lot in Georgia. Well -- up until the past few days. Lots of rain means lots of mushrooms.

These photos are of the same kind of mushroom. From the top it reminds me of one of those chocolate crinkle cookies -- the cracks and crevices.

From the side it looks like a sponge.

I like taking macro photos of mushrooms. These were taken with my nifty fifty 50mm lens and an extension tube. Using the extension tube I can get super close and there is a tiny bit a sharpness amid a lot of blur and bokeh. I like the abstract quality of these photos.
