Any support is MUCH APPRECIATED!
The autumn months are drawing in along with the dark nights and short days so what better opportunity then to visit my local woodland for a spot of woodland macro photography to photograph the mushrooms, fungi and toadstools that are popping out from the woodland floor.
The recent wet, dreary and mild weather here in the UK has provided perfect growing conditions for the woodland mushrooms photos, toadstools and fungi especially in my local woodland where several old trees have fallen, and broken branches of old dead and decaying wood litter the woodland floor.
Wandering around your local woodland can reveal a host of secrets and little scenes in miniature to photograph, however it takes a while for you photographers eye to focus in on the woodland mushrooms and woodland toadstools that make their homes in the wet nooks and crannies of the dead wood.
Allowing your eye adjust to the challenge is the key thing to remember and having a dedicated macro lens really helps with close up photography by bringing the miniature subjects to life, once you have found them within the chaos of the woodland photography environment.
So why not join me on this little amble into the woods as I try to find some interesting Macro photography compositions, armed with my trusty Pentax K1 and 100mm f/2.8 Pentax Macro Lens. Where I make the Mushrooms and Toadstools the focus of the compositions and introduce you to some little creepy crawly friends I made along the way
I would love to hear your thoughts on my little adventure and the images produced, so why not leave a comment, like and subscribe

Thank you Pete. High praise from a man of your photographic standing, so I'll take that! :) -- I'm also going to invest in some builders kneepads, was given to me as a top tip for future hands and knees work.... As you know I have quite an interest in all sorts of photography genres so the next video might be something quite different but I will be doing more Macro work for you all to enjoy.

That image at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="550">09:10</a> is absolutely stunning. The led light does a great job. I was out photographing mushrooms yesterday. There are loads about but also a lot of foragers! I hope they leave some for us. I usually have a dog with me and in fairness she is great. Same can't be said for this giant poodle thing that came out of nowhere yesterday and was jumping around like a flea. I had just stopped because I spotted my first mushroom and no sooner had I got my camera out but the poodle had trampled it and the owner still nowhere to be seen:) You win some you lose some!

Thanks for your comment Evil. Its been a great season for the shrooms so far, less so in my local wood as they are general sporadic any ways but other woodlands around the country i have heard reports of the fruiting bodies of all varieties being in bumper full bloom, so I imagine the foragers are rubbing their hands with glee. On my video there where several dog walkers, and unfortunately the woods rules that dogs should be kept on leaves is generally ignored as such was interrupted several times by wandering dogs being boisterous around me. A little off putting when your flat on your belly with lots of camera gear around and coming nose to nose with a dog without an owner! :)

Hello Alan, thank you for getting in touch. and welcome aboard. I think for me, a telephoto up to around 200mm would be my second lens choice If you get very low to the ground and shoot across to your subject from a few feet away often gives a lovely sense of depth and interesting perspective to your image. I might even try that myself on my next outing into the woods.

Hi, I love taking photos of fungi. I need to invest in a tripod to help me when taking images so low down. What would you recommend? Thanks
@GeoffMoorePhotography
@GeoffMoorePhotography 3 жыл бұрын
Hello Francesca, thank you for taking the time to comment. Tripod recommendations are such a complex thing as there are many variables to consider and things to understand about what you want to do and may want to do going forwards. However, with the understanding that photographing fungi is the primary purpose for it I would recommend looking for one with a reversible centre column. This will allow you to position your camera under the tripod rather than on top and give you a much lower working position. I would also suggest investing in the best quality tripod you can afford for various reasons including better stability, leg angles, weight etc. the reason for this is you never know your tastes may changes and you might want to do landscapes or low light photography in the future, and investing in a quality tripod at the start will be much more cost effective as you progress. The other recommendation I would make would be to look at getting a water proof bean bag to rest your camera on and some plastic sheeting or some other water proof material so you can actually kneel/lay down on the floor comfortably whilst staying dry. (Assuming mobility isn't an issue for you). This will make getting those very low and unique shots of fungi so much easier and more enjoyable Regards Geoff

Hey, thanks for asking. its the Mindshift Backlight 36L I highly recommend it, super comfortable and can carry a lot of gear! I can carry snacks & clothes (hat, gloves, weather proofs) 2 camera bodies, 1x DSLR Full Frame & 1X Mirrorless with 3 lens each. Mavic Air, Ipad and cables, x2 tripods. Just amazing! - amzn.to/3uRvRFU - Let me know if you get it and your thoughts.

Hey Kiln, Ulanzi Porcket Mini 96 led panel. Think I paid about £10 or so from Amazon. Has a switchable filter to give either a cool light or warm. Also has adjustable brightness.

I guess you don't understand macro photography at all. You never use f 2.8 to have such a narrow depth of field in macro.

Too dark? can you provide me an example or a timestamp so I can better understand. Or do you mean in general? if the latter i'm in a woodland in the UK on an overcast day. Not much light here for 9 months of the year at the best of times. :)
